How can we better treat epididymal malformation?

Patient's question:

How is testicular torsion treated? Now I'm constantly overthinking, making this condition seem very frightening to me because I don't understand it at all. I feel anxious and can't eat or sleep. How can I better treat testicular torsion?

Doctor's answer:

Epididymal malformations include structural abnormalities such as epididymal agenesis, segmental self-locking, and epididymal cysts. Generally, there are no clinical diagnostic symptoms, and they are often discovered during investigations and treatments for male infertility or cryptorchidism surgery. They are frequently associated with vas deferens malformations. If epididymal malformations do not affect fertility, treatment is not necessary. The epididymis can be stabilized, but the treatment process is usually lengthy and prone to recurrence. Therefore, active cooperation with the doctor, appropriate medication, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle with proper diet during treatment are essential.
