About Malignant tumor of testis.

A malignant tumor of the testis, commonly known as testicular cancer, is a neoplastic disease arising within the male reproductive system, primarily affecting males between the ages of 15 and 44.

The overwhelming majority originate from germ cells and are broadly classified into seminomas and nonseminomas, though rare malignancies can arise from sex cord-stromal tissues.

Pathophysiologically, these tumors frequently present as a painless testicular nodule or scrotal swelling, with progression typically characterized by lymphatic spread to the retroperitoneal lymph nodes and occasional hematogenous dissemination to distant sites such as the lungs.

Many subtypes are marked by aberrant serum tumor markers, including alpha-fetoprotein, human chorionic gonadotropin, and lactate dehydrogenase, which assist in clinical staging and therapeutic monitoring.
