For people who suffer from obesity and have a body mass index (BMI) of greater than 35, bariatric (weight loss) surgery may be on option.

Men who have a family history of the cancer or an undescended testicle are at greater risk for the disease. Symptoms include bumps on the testicles, as well as pain and swelling in the groin area. While these symptoms can be caused by something else altogether, it is important that a man experiencing these symptoms see a physician right away.

Some contend that the risks of testing and treatment outweigh the benefits.

- Laparoscopic SurgeryMany surgeries today are performed on a minimally invasive basis. In laparoscopic surgery, the surgeon performs the surgery by making three or four small incisions and then inserting small tools and a thin, flexible tube with a video camera on the end. The images from the camera are displayed on a television monitor that the surgeon utilizes to see inside the patient’s body and guide the surgical instruments accordingly. This process results in less cutting on the patient and therefore, minimal scarring. Laparoscopic surgery also provides the advantage of reduced blood loss and decreased risk of infection. Recovery time is faster and hospital stays are shorter.
