All testis cancer in Ireland (1980-1985) was analysed (n = 240). Incidence was highest in young adults (5.8/10(5)/year in those aged 25-34 years) with a moderate level in the elderly (1.8/10(5)/year in those over 75 years). Associations elsewhere with maldescent and social class were confirmed but cryptorchidism (12%) was more common than expected. Significant infertility was not identified. Associations with urban domicile (77%, p = 0.001), mental handicap (2.8%, p less than 0.05), recent vasectomy (1.2%, p = 0.009) and certain occupations were observed.
对爱尔兰所有睾丸癌病例（1980 - 1985年，n = 240）进行了分析。发病率在年轻人中最高（25 - 34岁年龄段为5.8/10⁵/年），在老年人中处于中等水平（75岁以上为1.8/10⁵/年）。其他地区所发现的与睾丸未降和社会阶层的关联得到了证实，但隐睾症（12%）比预期更为常见。未发现明显的不育情况。观察到与城市居住（77%，p = 0.001）、智力障碍（2.8%，p < 0.05）、近期输精管切除术（1.2%，p = 0.009）以及某些职业之间存在关联。
