Hi doctor,
I am in need of your help. I had torsion in the left testis; however, it cannot be treated within the time. Now, 12-15 days has already passed. The doctor has suggested for orchiectomy (removal of the left testis) and fixing of right testis. Is orchiectomy necessary? What are the other things I should consult? What are side effects? Is there any other alternative to this? If I did not get orchiectomy, will it cause any negative impact?

Hi doctor,
I have attached the color Doppler report. According to it, no vascularity is found in the left testis. There is no pain. However, it is still a bit swollen. What are the side effects of orchiectomy? Will the scrotum shrink?
