Orchi
Orchiectomy (also named orchidectomy) is a surgical procedure in which one or both testicles are removed. The surgery can be performed for various reasons:
treatment for testicular cancer
as part of gender-affirming surgery for transgender women and non-binary people
as management for advanced prostate cancer
to remove damaged testes after testicular torsion.
after a trauma or complex rupture of the tunica albuginea.
as a treatment for post-vasectomy pain syndrome.
Less frequently, orchiectomy may be performed following a trauma, or due to wasting away of one or more testicles.
