How can you differentiate between varicocele and testicular cancer?
Only an ultrasound or biopsy can differentiate a variocele from cancer. But it's true that cancer tumours tend to feel less mobile and firmer than the engorged veins of a variocele. IN a nutshell, a variocele is basically a spermatic vein varicosity (like a hemorrhoid is a varicose rectal vein). Veins tend to feel 'squiggly' and are compressable (they squish down to a degree). Tumours tends to feel more firm, nodular, and are more fixed in the testicle, and they are usually painless, unlike the variocele, but this is not always the case.
Reply:The best and quickest way to differentiate a varicocele from testicular tumor is with an ultrasound scan of the scrotum. The varicocele will look like fluid filled tubes and will have blood flow in them which is easily seen on color scans. Tumors will look like solid masses. Varicoceles are outside the testicles and tumor will be within the testicle.
