Q

ETIOLOGY of Testicular Tumours

A
  • Incompletely descended testes, especially the intra-abdominal variety.
  • Klinefelter’s syndrome
  • An isochromosome 12p is present in about 80 % of the testicular cancers.

Q

Meaning of isochromosome 12p in ETIOLOGY of Testicular Tumours

A

The short arm of chromosome 12 on both sides of
the centromere

An isochromosome is a chromosome that has lost one of its arms and replaced it with an exact copy of the other arm
