Testicular ascent to the inguinal region after hernia repair has been previously reported as a rare complication of this surgery in pediatric patients. This article presents two cases of adult patients with ascending testicles after inguinal hernia repair that was performed in childhood. Both men underwent orchidopexy through a combined inguinal and scrotal approach, the latter for the creation of a sub-dartos pouch. In both cases, this intervention was completed successfully without complication and resulted in a satisfactory post-operative position of the testicles in the scrotal sac. This surgical approach appears to be a safe management option for adult men with ascending testicles after inguinal hernia repair.
睾丸在疝气修补术后升至腹股沟区,此前曾有报道称这是小儿患者该手术罕见的并发症。本文介绍了两例成年患者,他们在儿童时期接受腹股沟疝气修补术后出现睾丸上升。两名男性均通过腹股沟和阴囊联合入路进行了睾丸固定术,后者用于创建肉膜下袋。在这两例病例中,该干预均成功完成,无并发症,且术后睾丸在阴囊内的位置令人满意。对于腹股沟疝气修补术后睾丸上升的成年男性,这种手术方法似乎是一种安全的治疗选择。
