Orchiopexy Surgery in Ahmedabad
Orchiopexy is a surgical procedure performed to correct an undescended or retracted testicle, a condition known as cryptorchidism. While it is more commonly performed in children, some adults may require this procedure if the testicle did not descend properly during childhood or has become retracted later in life. Orchiopexy aims to position the testicle in its proper location within the scrotum, preventing complications and improving testicular function.
During Orchiopexy, the surgeon makes an incision in the groin or lower abdomen to locate the undescended or retracted testicle. The testicle is then gently moved into the scrotum and secured in place with sutures. The procedure is typically performed under general or local anesthesia, and most patients can go home the same day. Recovery time is usually short, with minimal discomfort. Orchiopexy offers a high success rate and is a crucial procedure for adults with an undescended or retracted testicle. By ensuring proper testicular positioning, the surgery helps prevent future complications, enhances fertility potential, and improves the patient's overall quality of life.
Common Indications for Orchiopexy
Why This Procedure is Important?
Orchiopexy is essential for adults with an undescended or retracted testicle to prevent complications such as infertility, testicular torsion, or an increased risk of testicular cancer. The procedure ensures that the testicle is correctly positioned within the scrotum, allowing for proper temperature regulation, improved sperm production, and easier testicular self-examination. By opting for orchiopexy, patients can reduce the risk of long-term complications and improve their overall testicular health.
