Testicular Cancer95% of testicular cancer starts in the germ cells (undeveloped cells that produce sperm). These tumors are most common in men between the ages of 20-40, and are treatable in 95% of cases.There are two main types: seminomas and nonseminomas. A third type, called stromal tumors, develops in the supporting tissues of the testicle. About 40% of germ cell tumors are seminomas, which are classified as either typical or spermatocytic. Typical seminomas account for 90% of this type. They often cause unilateral (on one side) testicle enlargement or more often a painless lump in the testicle. Spermatocytic seminomas grow slowly, usually do not spread to other parts of the body (metastasize), and are most common around age 65.
