It has been suggested that testicular self-examination (TSE) can help in early detection and thus potentially improve treatment outcomes and prognosis. While TSE is more well established in guideline recommendations for patients with a known history of TCa, its role in healthy young men is less established and controversial. In this paper, we review contemporary data to provide an updated recommendation. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/170001 | ISSN: | 0724-4983 | DOI: | 10.1007/s00345-023-04381-4 | Schools: | Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine (LKCMedicine) | Organisations: | Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, NUS Tan Tock Seng Hospital |
