No, you don't have to have a lump to have cancer. It could any of these symptoms too: a dull ache or sharp pain in the testicles or scrotum which may come and go, a feeling of heaviness in the scrotum, a dull ache in your lower abdomen, a sudden collection of fluid in the scrotum, fatigue and a general feeling of being unwell.

If you have one undescended testicle which of your two testes is more likely to develop cancer?

For people with one undescended testicle who develop cancer, the undescended testicle is the one that has the cancer 80% of the time. Since the descended testicle can develop cancer 20% of the time, removal of the undescended testicle is rarely performed anymore as it used to be. Careful examination of the testicles is important, especially in someone who has history of an undescended one. Hope this helps! Dr. B.
