The cause of male epididymal cancer is still unclear, which may be related to injury, infection, heredity, bad life habits and other reasons.
1. Injury: Accidental injury may lead to abnormal impact and pressure on epididymis, which may damage the epididymis and cause lesions.
2. Infection: commonly caused by Escherichia coli, gonococcus, chlamydia and other bacterial infections, but also due to prostatitis, urinary tract infections and other diseases caused by the spread of bacteria and urine through the vas deferens reflux to the epididymis.
3. Heredity: it is a more common cause, generally there is family history of epididymal cancer patients, and it is suggested that people with family history should have regular review.
4. Bad life habits: common causes include unclean sex life and excessive masturbation, which may lead to lesions in epididymal tissues.
Early detection, early diagnosis and early treatment are recommended for epididymal cancer to improve the cure rate of the disease.
