| cancer, testicular | Cancer of the male sex organ (testicle) that normally produces the hormone testosterone. One of the most common cancers in young men. Most testicular cancers are found by men themselves as a lump in the testicle. The risk of cancer of the testicles is increased in males whose testicles did not move down normally into the scrotum (holding sac for the testicles) during development if the problem is not corrected in early childhood. This condition is referred to as undescended testicles. When a growth in the testicle is detected, cancer is confirmed after surgical removal of the affected testicle (orchiectomy) and examination of the tissue under a microscope. Testicular cancer is almost always curable if it is found early. (12 Dec 1998) |
| right testicular vein | <anatomy, vein> Begins as the pampiniform plexus and ascends to joint the inferior vena cava. Synonym: vena testicularis dextra. (05 Mar 2000) |

| testicular | <anatomy> Pertaining to a testis. (18 Nov 1997) |
| testicular appendage | A vesicular nonpedunculated structure attached to the cephalic pole of the testis; a vestige of the cephalic end of the paramesonephric (mullerian) duct. Synonym: appendix testis, appendix of the testis, nonpedunculated hydatid, ovarium masculinum, sessile hydatid. (05 Mar 2000) |
| testicular artery | <anatomy, artery> Origin, aorta; branches, ureteral, cremasteric, epididymal; distribution, testicle and parts designated by names of branches; anastomoses, branches of renal, inferior epigastric, deferential. Synonym: arteria testicularis, arteria spermatica interna, internal spermatic artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| testicular biopsy | <procedure> The removal of a fragment of a testicle for examination under the microscope. (13 Jan 1998) |
| testicular cancer | <oncology> A malignant growth that arises from a glandular cell in the testis. Common symptoms include a painless testicular mass in a male between the ages of 15 and 35 years. Monthly self-examinations are recommended in those between the ages of 15 and 39 years of age. (13 Jan 1998) |
| testicular cord | A group of structures which go through the inguinal canal to the testis. The structures include the vas deferens, arteries, veins, lymphatic vessels, and nerves. (12 Dec 1998) |
| testicular duct | The secretory duct of the testicle, running from the epididymis, of which it is the continuation, to the prostatic urethra where it terminates as the ejaculatory duct. Synonym: deferent canal, deferent duct, spermatic duct, spermiduct, testicular duct, vas deferens. (05 Mar 2000) |
