[Male cancers and prevention at a cancer center].

Prostate and testicular cancer are male cancers whose early symptoms are subtle. Prostate cancer, which is common in men over the age of 50, progresses slowly and, if detected early, has a good prognosis. Testicular cancer is rare, develops in young men, and can be detected by self-examination. Although routine screening is not recommended, it is advised in cases where symptoms are present and after discussion with a doctor. The Bergonié Institute, located in Bordeaux, plays an important role in the fight against these cancers and works to promote prevention through local awareness campaigns.
