A member asked:
I heard that an undescended testicle could be breast cancer, is this true?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: If you have an undescended testicle, this can put you at risk for testicular cancer. You should get this surgically corrected if this is the case for you. If you have a family member with breast cancer (either male or female), you have a greater than average risk of developing testicular cancer (does not have to be undescended).
