摘要
Chronic testicular pain has many different aetiologies. Identification and treatment of an underlying problem resolve the issue in most cases. However, a proportion of patients with chronic testicular pain have no demonstrable aetiological factor and pose a difficult treatment problem. All of these patients are initially treated by non-surgical measures. Various operations advocated in the literature for non-responders include epididymectomy, scrotal orchiectomy and inguinal orchiectomy, all of which have a significant failure rate. We describe a hitherto unreported operative procedure in a series of 4 patients, with immediate and lasting relief of their pain.
