What is recovery time on orchidectomy on 16yr old+ prosthesis .operation on 0ct 27th.he wants to perform at rock gig on nov 6th- undescended testicle?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Too soon for gig: 1) Why orchidectomy for undescended testis? can't it be brought down?. Has he seen a pedi urologist re. ? orchidopexy rather than 'ectomy ? 2) Would only remove if can't be brought down &/or abnormal by ultrasound. 3) Advise 3 wks recovery before rock gig, incision not adequately healed in 10 days.
