Patient's question:
I'd like to ask the doctor, is the surgical risk high for hydrocele of the spermatic cord and testis? Will there be any aftereffects? Can medical insurance prepay for the surgery? What is the approximate cost of the surgery in a Class III-A hospital? How long does it take to recover and return to normal life after the surgery?Doctor's answer:
Under normal circumstances, after the testicles ascend to the scrotum, the subcutaneous passage between the tunica vaginalis and the abdominal cavity naturally closes. If the closure is incomplete, ascites may move downward, leading to the recurrence of hydrocele. This condition generally has a good prognosis after treatment. It can be treated through methods such as medication or surgery. The specific approach depends on individual circumstances and the results of a thorough examination. There is no significant risk involved.
