Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, C, E
Cancer of the testis occurs most commonly in men between the ages of 15 and 35 years. In the United States, the lifetime probability of developing testicular cancer is 0.3 for white men, an incidence that is 4.5 times higher than in blacks. Testicular cancer is also a well-established com-plication of cryptorchidism.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Clinical manifestations of acute bacterial prostatitis are those of UTI or pyelonephritis.
Cancer often has no symptoms. Symptoms could include difficulty with urinary stream, but more commonly it is of UTI. The main symptom of epididymitis is scrotal or inguinal pain caused by inflammation of the epididymis and surrounding tissues.
