- Fertility-Preserving Testis Surgery
Testicular sparing and fertility preserving surgery is an advanced, organ-preserving surgical technique used in selected cases of testicular cancer, especially when tumors are small, benign-appearing, or located in only one part of the testis. The goal is to remove the tumor while preserving the healthy portion of the testicle, maintaining hormonal function and fertility potential.
This approach is particularly beneficial for young men who wish to retain reproductive capability and avoid lifelong hormone replacement therapy. The surgery may be combined with sperm banking or other fertility-preserving measures based on individual needs.
Who Needs Testicular Sparing Surgery?
This surgery may be considered in:
Small or benign-appearing testicular tumors
Tumors in a solitary testis
Patients with bilateral testicular tumors
Men desiring fertility preservation
Normal tumor markers and imaging suggestive of benign pathology
