Subfertility: an etiologic factor in development of testicular cancer?

D E Johnson, J J Fueger, P J Alfaro, M R Spitz, G R Newell.   

Abstract

Gonadal dysfunction with resultant subfertility has been implicated as a possible etiologic factor in testicular cancer. A survey of 57 men who had been married before testicular cancer developed revealed that only four marriages (9%) had problems with fertility. Our findings fail to support a premise that testicular carcinoma is associated with prior male infertility.
