Testicular prosthesis refers to testicular prosthesis implantation, a surgical procedure to repair an empty testicle.
Testicular prosthesis implantation is a relatively common prosthesis implantation procedure. Testicular prosthesis implantation is indicated for patients with testicular agenesis of various clinical causes, unilateral testicular agenesis with normal function of the contralateral testis, and bilateral cryptorchidism with normal function of the testicular interstitial cells.
The choices of prosthesis materials for testicular prosthesis implantation are alloy, plexiglass, polyethylene, polyester fiber, silicone, etc. You should talk to your doctor before surgery to choose the right prosthesis. After the surgery is completed, it can improve the appearance of the preoperative testicular deficiency, but it cannot improve the function of the testicle.
After testicular prosthesis surgery, patients should avoid strenuous exercise as much as possible, and should go to the hospital for review in time to avoid causing postoperative adverse reactions.
