Patient's question:
Nowadays, I'm constantly overthinking, making this condition seem incredibly frightening to me. This is because I have absolutely no understanding of the disease, and it leaves me feeling uneasy, unable to eat or sleep. How should testicular appendage malformation be treated?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 male infertility investigations or orchiopexy surgery. They are frequently associated with vas deferens malformations. If epididymal malformations do not affect fertility, treatment is not necessary, as the epididymis can be relieved. However, the treatment process is usually lengthy and prone to recurrence. Therefore, active cooperation with the doctor, appropriate medication, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet are recommended during treatment.
