How is chronic cryptorchidism treated
summary
Many children's parents are very anxious when they find that their children suffer from cryptorchidism. They are worried that cryptorchidism will affect their normal life. They want to cure their children as soon as possible and not let their children's psychology bear the pressure, but they are worried that it will leave sequelae. So, today we know how to treat chronic cryptorchidism.
How is chronic cryptorchidism treated
First, hormone therapy for cryptorchidism can be accompanied by hypothalamic pituitary gonadal axis abnormalities, hormone therapy using hCG, LHRH or a combination of both. The guidelines recommend that β - hCG be used in the preoperative preparation of non palpable cryptorchidism or some cases of reworking. It can increase testicular blood supply, facilitate operation, and the effect of treatment is acceptable.
Second, surgery should be performed as soon as possible for those whose testicles have not yet descended to scrotum 6 months after birth. For adolescent cryptorchidism patients, once found in time for testicular descent fixation, if found that the testis has atrophied or can not drop into the scrotum, if necessary, can implement orchiectomy, this is currently the most appropriate method of treatment, the cure effect is also very good.
Third, testicular autotransplantation is suitable for high cryptorchidism. The blood vessels of testis were ligated, the testis was transferred into scrotum, and the testicular blood vessels and inferior epigastric artery were anastomosed. This is not a widely used method and is not recommended as a routine operation.
matters needing attention
Some patients with cryptorchidism may be cured by hormone therapy, and some patients with cryptorchidism may be cured by testicular fixation. However, any treatment method depends on the patient's physical condition and the degree of adaptation to drugs and medical methods. It can not be generalized, but these treatment methods can cure cryptorchidism in most cases.
