Question 5 of 5
During a shower three days ago, Jeremy Robb, 19, discovered a firm lump in his left testis. He went to the student health center at his university, was referred to a local physician and was admitted to the hospital for a left orchiectomy and lymph node resection. Risk factors for cancer of the testes include:
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Smoking has been linked to cancer of the lungs, bladder, and pancreas, but has not been linked directly to cancer of the testes. Males who had undescended testicle(s) have been found to have a higher incidence of cancer of the testes later. It is theorized that the internal heat the testes are exposed to while in the abdomen causes the damage to the testes. Multiple sex partners is a risk for genital warts, AIDS, and sexually transmitted diseases, but has not been shown to be a risk for cancer of the testes. Genital trauma more likely causes bladder and ureteral damage.
