Testis Surgery in Ahmedabad

What is pediatric testis surgery?

Testis surgery in children addresses conditions affecting the testicles and scrotum, including undescended testis (cryptorchidism), testicular torsion, hydrocele, and other developmental problems. Timely treatment supports normal growth, function, and long-term health.

Conditions we treat

• Undescended testis (cryptorchidism) — testicle has not moved into the scrotum
• Testicular torsion — emergency twisting that cuts off blood supply to the testis
• Hydrocele and spermatocele — fluid or cystic swelling around the testicle
• Varicocele — enlarged veins in the scrotum (evaluated in adolescents)
• Trauma or infection affecting the scrotum and testes

Symptoms

• Absent or high-riding testis on one or both sides
• Sudden severe scrotal pain and swelling (possible torsion — seek emergency care)
• Painless scrotal swelling that changes in size
• Asymmetric scrotum or abnormal testicular position noted at birth or checkups

Diagnosis

Evaluation includes physical examination of the groin and scrotum, comparison of both sides, and assessment in lying and standing positions. Ultrasound helps when the testis cannot be felt or when torsion is suspected. Prompt diagnosis is critical for torsion.

Surgical treatments

Orchiopexy is the standard surgery for undescended testis, fixing the testicle in the scrotum. It is usually recommended between 6 and 18 months of age. Testicular torsion requires emergency surgery to untwist and secure the testis.
