Patient's question:
Congenital testicular malformation, I've been married for several years and have never been able to get pregnant. Later, when I wanted a child, I went to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said the infertility was caused by the testicular malformation. Is my condition very serious? What should I do if one testicle is swollen, of different sizes, and very hard?Doctor's answer:
In your case, it is necessary to rule out inguinal hernia, which is caused by abdominal organs and tissues passing through weak points in the abdominal wall into the scrotum. It is usually recurrent and may lead to strangulation in later stages. If the small intestine is strangulated, it can be life-threatening.Recommendation: It is recommended that you undergo a color Doppler ultrasound of the perineum to identify the cause. If it is a hernia, minimally invasive surgery is generally used for treatment. Early diagnosis is important to prevent recurrence and adhesion.
