A member asked:
Is there any way to revive the testicle by reattaching the cord & w/ stem cells or transplant w/ no rejection meds if i once pulled & torn the right testicle's spermatic cord, the teste crumbled into smaller parts which could be atrophy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
There is a very small chance to re-attach a testicle immediately after trauma but not otherwise. Testicular transplant is possible but is complicated and requires life-long antirejection meds. In your scenario salvage is not possible,. Stem cell therapy is still not clinically available for such situations
