Patient's question:
My brother had a vasectomy a while ago and is now resting at home. Hello doctor, what are the potential complications of a vasectomy?Doctor's answer:
Orchiopexy, often used for patients with cryptorchidism, primarily involves the surgical fixation of the undescended testis. Postoperative complications are common, including incisional pain, testicular atrophy, and testicular swelling. Due to the current maturity of surgical techniques, postoperative complications are relatively rare. To prevent complications, active cooperation with the doctor after surgery, bed rest, and regular follow-up ultrasound examinations are recommended to closely monitor the complete recovery of the testis postoperatively.
