Summary
KUALA LUMPUR, July 14 (Bernama) -- Testicular cancer is the most common solid cancer affecting young men, yet awareness of the disease remains relatively low. But Dr Murali emphasised that even when testicular cancer is diagnosed at a more advanced stage, outcomes remain encouraging, saying about 70 per cent of patients can be completely cured with chemotherapy, even at advanced stages. To support early detection, he advises men, especially those in younger age groups, to perform regular testicular self-examinations, adding that once a lump is detected, diagnosis is usually straightforward. “A simple ultrasound has a 90 per cent accuracy rate for diagnosing testicular cancer.
Furthermore, Consultant Urologist and Robotic Surgeon at Sunway Medical Centre, Sunway City, Dr Murali Sundram Mikaail Abdullah said advances in medical treatment have resulted in a five-year survival rate of approximately 95 per cent for testicular cancer, especially when it is diagnosed and treated early. Today, robotic-assisted surgery is available in selected centres for carefully chosen patients. “Because of the smaller incisions, recovery time is much shorter,” Dr Murali said, adding that many patients are able to return to their normal daily activities within weeks. All ministries, government entities and public institutions in Qatar will be closed during this period. — Bernama.
