According to the National Cancer Institute, there are about 8,400 new cases of testicular cancer in the United States each year. Most of the cases occur in the 15 to 34 age group. While the exact causes of testicular cancer are not known, there is evidence to support carcinogen ingestion through smoking or other environmental sources. There is also evidence pointing to inherited genetic predisposition to developing the disease.
