What holds the testicle in place?
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.
Why left spermatic cord greater length than right?
The left spermatic cord is generally longer than the right due to the anatomical positioning of the testicles. The left testicle typically descends lower into the scrotum than the right, which necessitates a longer spermatic cord to accommodate this difference. Additionally, variations in the length of the spermatic cord can be influenced by factors such as individual anatomy and developmental differences. This asymmetry is normal and usually does not affect fertility or function.
Why is the entire spermatic cord and the testicle removed during an inguinal orchiectomy?
The reason for this complete removal is that testicular cancers frequently spread from the spermatic cord into the lymph nodes near the kidneys.
Why is a non-absorbable suture left in the stump of the spermatic cord in an inguinal orchiectomy?
A long non-absorbable suture is left in the stump of the spermatic cord in case later surgery is necessary.
