ANS: C
Although cancer of the epididymis is considered rare, it is still the most common cancer found in men aged 20-34. Men should be taught the technique of testicular self-examination, which is best performed after a warm shower when the scrotum is more relaxed. Annual screening is not recommended other than during a clinical exam. The epididymis is normally slightly tender to pressure.
