Testicular Cancer
Subject index 

A lump was first found in the neck in 2000. After a biopsy, testicular cancer (teratoma) was diagnosed, and other secondary tumours found in lungs and abdomen; 5 cycles of chemotherapy (each cycle over 3 weeks, with 3 days in hospital); then surgery- biopsy of an abdominal tumour - found to be dead tissue.
Testicular cancer (seminoma) diagnosed in 1997; orchidectomy. In 1998 lymph glands in abdomen and lungs appeared slightly larger than normal, so thoracoscopy, mediastinoscopy, and bronchoscopy to look for secondary tumours; none were found. One chemotherapy treatment to prevent recurrence.
