Overview
Common risk factors in testicular seminoma include undescended testis, caucasian race, previous tumor in the contralateral testis, and family history of testicular germ cell tumor.
Risk Factors
Common risk factors in testicular seminoma include:[1][2][3][4][5][6]
- Caucasian race
- Undescended testicle
- Family history of testicular cancer
- Personal history of testicular cancer (previous tumor in contralateral testis)
- Klinefelter syndrome
- Impaired spermatogenesis
- Hypospadias
- Testicular microlithiasis
- Testicular dysgenesis
- Other risk factors
- Infections such as HIV, orchitis
- History of trauma
- Organ transplant immunosuppression
