Now days international patients are giving preference to have their orchidectomy in India at Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore and Pune due to its low cost. Orchidectomy in India has provided great success to patients having testicular and prostate cancer with great success. An orchidectomy (also called orchiectomy) is done to help control the growth of prostate cancer. It is an operation to remove your testicles (testes). Prostate gland needs testosterone in order to grow but prostate cancer prevents it. Testosterone is the male sex hormone produced by the testicles, or testes. If the testicles are removed, the level of testosterone in your blood will fall dramatically. And in 9 out of 10 cases (90%) the prostate cancer will stop growing and start to shrink. Orchidectomy is only usually used these days as an emergency treatment if your cancer has spread to the bone and is pressing on your spinal cord. This is called cord compression.
You physician will request some special blood tests that will include serum tumor markers like AFP (alpha feto-protein) , beta-hCG, and LDH. Routine blood and urine analysis, CT of abdomen and chest x-ray will be requested by your physician on your pre-oparative consult. Inform your physician about your other health conditions and medications (including all the prescription, non-prescription medications, nutritional supplements i.e. vitamins, minerals and herbal products). Refrain from taking aspirin or Ibuprofen at least 2 weeks before orchiectomy. Stop smoking a few weeks before Orchiectomy to prevent healing problems during recovery period. Do not eat or drink any thing for at least 10 hours before the orchiectomy surgery. Orchiectomy is performed under general anesthesia, prior hospitalization may or may not be necessary. The lower abdomen and scrotum will be shaved and thoroughly cleaned before the operation. Either general anesthesia or local anesthesia with spinal block will be given to ensure that you do not experience any pain during the orchiectomy procedure. Testicles will be removed through an incision in the scrotum or the groin. At the end of the orchiectomy operation, the incision will be sutured. The surgery generally takes between 30 minutes and 1 hour. Your surgeon might suggest to insert a prosthesis (scrotal implant) or artificial replacement for the testes in your scrotum to give your scrotum a normal look. Some of the lymph nodes that are located deep in the abdomen or inguinal area may also be removed. You will spend a couple of days after Orchiectomy operation in the recovery room under observation to monitor your vital signs, heart and lung function and watch for excessive bleeding. Use ice for the first 24 hours followed by heat (at the site of operation) to relieve pain and swelling. Pain medication and antibiotics will be prescribed to prevent infection and alleviate pain and discomfort. You will be instructed to wear a scrotal support (jock strap) for 3 - 4 days and will be allowed to go home after 2 - 3 days. You will be ready to resume your daily activities in about a month and will be instructed to come in for regular follow up for the next 5 years if Orchiectomy was performed for the treatment of testicular cancer or prostate cancer. Keep your incision clean and dry, carefully clean the scrotal area when you bathe or shower and change your dressing.
