Individualized Surgical Planning
The surgical approach is selected based on tumor characteristics, previous treatment, anatomy, imaging and the overall oncological objective.
Complete Cancer Care Beyond Surgery
Testicular cancer treatment may involve several specialties. Surgical treatment is planned alongside oncology and diagnostic services when required.
- Medical oncology coordination
- Radiation oncology input when clinically indicated
- Radiology and advanced imaging review

Testicular Cancer Treatment FAQ
Common questions about testicular cancer surgery, diagnosis and treatment.
What is testicular cancer?
Testicular cancer is cancer that develops in the testicles. Most malignant testicular tumors arise from germ cells and include seminoma and non-seminomatous germ cell tumors.
What is the main surgery for testicular cancer?
Radical inguinal orchiectomy is a standard surgical procedure for many suspected testicular cancers. It involves removal of the affected testicle through an incision in the groin and provides tissue for definitive diagnosis.
What is RPLND in testicular cancer?
RPLND stands for retroperitoneal lymph node dissection. It is a specialized operation that removes selected lymph nodes from the retroperitoneum and is used in specific testicular cancer situations.
Can testicular cancer surgery be robotic?
Selected retroperitoneal procedures may be performed using robotic techniques. Suitability depends on tumor characteristics, previous treatment, anatomy and the surgeon's assessment.
What tests are used to evaluate testicular cancer?
Evaluation can include physical examination, scrotal ultrasound, serum tumor markers and appropriate imaging. Further investigations are determined by the clinical situation.
Is chemotherapy required after testicular cancer surgery?
Not every patient requires chemotherapy. The need for additional treatment depends on tumor type, stage, risk factors, tumor markers and other clinical findings.
