Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Most varicoceles are asymptomatic, but the patient may complain of a dull ache, fullness, pain that does not radiate, or pulling to the affected side of the scrotum. If the varicocele is large enough, it typically results in scrotal swelling that is noticeable to the patient, along with a bluish discoloration beneath the scrotal skin. A longstanding varicocele may cause testicular atrophy. If the varicocele is large, it may be visible during inspection (bag of worms).

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Risk factors for cancer of the penis include not being circumcised and a history of STDs, particularly condyloma acuminatum. Condyloma acuminata are warty lesions.
