Patient's question:
My son is two years old and will have a testicular ascent surgery tomorrow. The doctor said there is a possibility of cancer in the future, so I searched online. I hope the doctor can clarify a few things, what should I do?Doctor's answer:
Now she is only two years old, so it is generally not a problem after surgery. It is still possible, but the chance is very small. The longer the undescended testicle has been present, the greater the likelihood of expansion, so there is no need to worry. Generally, surgery is not likely to be performed until around two years of age, so there is no need to worry. If hormones can be used within the first year, surgery can be considered if it doesn't work. For male patients, it is important to seek medical attention at a professional and reputable hospital and consider treatment based on the examination results. Additionally, it is important to quit smoking and drinking and pay attention to personal hygiene.
