Hydrocele Surgery
is a medical procedure performed to treat a hydrocele, a condition characterized by the accumulation of fluid around the testicle, causing scrotal swelling. During the surgery, a surgeon typically makes a small incision in the scrotum, drains the excess fluid, and may remove the sac responsible for fluid accumulation. In some cases, a minimally invasive approach called a hydrocelectomy with a laparoscope is used. Hydrocele surgery is a safe and effective way to relieve discomfort, reduce scrotal swelling, and prevent the recurrence of hydroceles. Recovery is usually straightforward, with minimal postoperative discomfort.
