What you need to know about Simple Orchiectomy in Agusan del Norte
Orchiectomy, also known as an orchidectomy, or simply orchi, is a surgical procedure in which one or both testicles are removed. When just one testicle is removed, it is called unilateral simple orchiectomy. When both testicles are removed, the procedure is called bilateral orchiectomy. The surgery is typically performed as a treatment for testicular cancer. Some other cases where simple orchiectomy is performed are:
- Testicular torsion
- In patients with advanced prostate cancer.
- In the management of cases of male breast cancer
- As a last-line treatment for intractable and debilitating chronic orchialgia.
- In severe trauma.
- As part of sex reassignment surgery (SRS) for transgender women.
As the name implies, simple orchiectomy is a simple procedure, taking about just 30 minutes to be performed.
What's the Recovery Time for Simple Orchiectomy Procedures in Agusan del Norte?
The usual recovery time can take about a month. The first two weeks can be especially painful and patients are advised to not engage in vigorous exercise or effort.
