It is called a radical orchiectomy because the surgeon removes the entire spermatic cord as well as the testicle itself.
The radius is a cord, is it not?
The longest chord in a circle is its diameter and halve of this is its radius.
r = known radius x = known arc length --------------------------- C (circumference of circle) = 2 * PI * r A (angle of chord in degrees) = x / C * 360 L (length of chord) = r * sin(A/2) * 2
Line can go forever. It is always straight

The spermatic cord is found only in males. The spermatic cord is composed of the vas deferens which run from each testicle.
The spermatic cord is a group of fibers and tissues that form part of the male reproductive system. The spermatic cord is located in the abdominal region and extends to the testicles.
Though the scrotum encloses the testes and protects them, what actually holds them in place is a a single bundle of tissues called the spermatic cord. Each testis then receives its blood supply through the spermatic cord.
Testicular torsion
A long non-absorbable suture is left in the stump of the spermatic cord in case later surgery is necessary.
The reason for this complete removal is that testicular cancers frequently spread from the spermatic cord into the lymph nodes near the kidneys.
It is called the "Scrotum".

The scrotum is a pouch that holds the testes and parts of the spermatic cord. Its muscular activity regulates the temperature of the testes.
