[A new method of radical orchiectomy for testicular cancer].

This article presents our experience of performing a new laparoscopic method of radical orchiectomy. At the JSC "European Medical Center" in the period from 2022 to 2024 we performed laparoscopic radical orchiectomies in three patients with testicular cancer. All patients were examined on an outpatient basis, ultrasound and MRI of the scrotum, PET-CT scan were performed, and laboratory tests were carried out. Malignant testicular lesion was confirmed in all patients. All operations were performed in full volume, without complications during the operation and in the postoperative period. The duration of the laparoscopic surgery was comparable to the standard open technique. In the postoperative period the pain intensity in the area of surgery, the recovery period and the presence of complications were evaluated. CONCLUSION: Radical orchiectomy with laparoscopic assistance is a minimally invasive method of surgical treatment of testicular tumors, which allows to perform the removal of the testis and elements of the spermatic cord as radically and safely as possible, and also has pronounced advantages in the form of reduction of postoperative pain syndrome in the area of surgery (no more than 2 points on VAS), reduction of the recovery period and the risk of possible postoperative complications.
