Specialty: Oncology: Symptoms: Lump in the testicle, swelling or pain in the scrotum [2] Usual onset: 20 to 34 years old males [3] Types: Germ cell tumors (seminomas and nonseminomas), sex-cord stromal tumors, lymphomas [4] [5] Risk factors
The presence of two or more tumor types in a single patient does not automatically designate that individual as having MEN because there is a small statistical chance that the development of two "sporadic" tumors that occur in one of the MEN syndromes could occur by chance. [citation needed]
Prostate cancer is the most diagnosed cancer in men in over half of the world's countries, and the leading cause of cancer death in men in around a quarter of countries. [ 92 ] Prostate cancer is rare in those under 40 years old, [ 93 ] and most cases occur in those over 60 years, [ 2 ] with the average person diagnosed at 67. [ 94 ]
Pituitary tumor in MEN1 can be large and cause signs by compressing adjacent tissues. Pancreatic tumors associated with MEN-1 usually form in the beta cells of the islets of Langerhans, causing over-secretion of insulin, resulting in low blood glucose levels (hypoglycemia). However, many other tumors of the pancreatic Islets of Langerhans can ...
Penile cancer is a rare cancer in developed nations, with annual incidence varying from 0.3 to 1 per 100,000 per year, accounting for around 0.4–0.6% of all malignancies. [4] The annual incidence is approximately 1 in 100,000 men in the United States, [28] 1 in 250,000 in Australia, [29] and 0.82 per 100,000 in Denmark. [30]

Stage 1 seminoma is characterized by the absence of clinical evidence of metastasis. Active surveillance consists of periodic history and physical examinations, tumor marker analysis, and radiographic imaging.
