The reason for this complete removal is that testicular cancers frequently spread from the spermatic cord into the lymph nodes near the kidneys.

What is the treatment for a man with a testicle blockage?

If I am correct in assuming so, I believe you are referring to testicular torsion, which is the twisting of the spermatic cord, which cuts off the blood supply to the testicle and surrounding structures within the scrotum. With no blood supply, the tissue DIES. Therefore, this situation is an emergency. Surgery is usually required and should be performed as soon as possible after symptoms begin. If surgery is performed within 6 hours, most testicles can be saved. If the blood supply is cut off to the testicle for a prolonged period of time, it may atrophy (shrink) and need to be surgically removed. Atrophy of the testicle may occur days-to-months after the torsion has been corrected. Severe infection of the testicle and scrotum is also possible if the blood flow is restricted for a prolonged period. Testicular torsion is a medical emergency that needs immediate treatment. Death of the testicle can occur in a few hours. Once the testicle is dead it must be removed to prevent gangrenous infection.
