Absence of Testis From Scrotum
ABSENCE OF TESTIS FROM SCROTUM
The child does not have to stay in the hospital for more than a day and goes home the same evening or the next morning. In the post operative period, there will be a swelling both in the inguinal and the scrotal region. This is expected due to the surgery and should not be a cause of worry to the parents of the child. The swelling will gradually decrease within the next few days and the hardening of the incision in the inguinal region will also soften over 3 months. Later, the incision will just be seen but not felt. Usually antibiotic and anti inflammatory drugs are given in
the immediate post operative period. The dressing is opened on the 7th post operative day and left open. Since the sutures used are absorbable, no suture removal is required. Child can start having a bath after the dressing is removed and is allowed full normal activities including sports after 6 weeks of the surgery.
