Testicular Cancer

Unmet holistic needs of various cancer populations, with examples including prostate, bladder, gynecologic, kidney, penile, breast, and colorectal, along with holistic impacts of cancer on older adults, have been defined by a growing number of systematic reviews. Unfortunately, there continues to be a lack of clinical insight into the unique needs of younger men with testicular cancer. Survival rate based on low mortality rates and good prognosis if early detection and treatment implementation grows the number of men who need support as long-term survivors with an average life expectancy of approximately 30 to 50 years after treatment. Providers and clinicians need to approach testicular cancer survivors with the tools and strategies that meet these unmet needs for navigation from diagnosis through survivorship. When strategies of specific resources and education are implemented based on the unique needs of these individuals, positive outcomes and increased health care-related quality of life will be prevalent.
