Patient's question:
A few days ago, after a thorough examination, it was confirmed that it is an epididymal anomaly. Now, I'm constantly overthinking and imagining this condition to be extremelyDoctor's answer:
Epididymal head cysts can be treated with aspiration and injection of anesthetic and sclerosing agents. However, due to a high recurrence rate, this method is less safe and reliable compared to surgical approaches and is now used less frequently. In cases of absent epididymis, treatment is not possible for the epididymis itself, and the focus is primarily on addressing fertility issues. If the patient's testicular spermatogenesis function is normal, assisted reproductive technologies can be considered. For patients with epididymal malformations and cryptorchidism, timely orchiopexy should be performed. Appropriate antimicrobial drugs should be used. Acute epididymal malformations should be treated until symptoms completely disappear, followed by a dedicated course of medication for 4–5 days. Chronic epididymitis, on the other hand, requires a dedicated course of medication for 2–3 weeks to ensure stable efficacy.
