Abstract
Of 133 men with testicular abnormalities, 52 underwent orchiectomy within a month of symptoms, 41 delayed seeking medical advice and 40 were treated initially for conditions other than testicular cancer. Death occurred in 20 of the 89 patients with nonseminomatous germ cell tumors; in 16 of these, diagnosis had been delayed. Prompt diagnosis and treatment could reduce mortality from these neoplasms to less than 10 percent.
摘要
在133名睾丸异常的男性中，52人在出现症状后的一个月内接受了睾丸切除术，41人延迟就医，40人最初接受的治疗并非针对睾丸癌。89例非精原细胞性生殖细胞肿瘤患者中有20人死亡；其中16人的诊断被延误。及时诊断和治疗可将这些肿瘤的死亡率降低至10%以下。
