Questions about simple orchiectomy

Post by MeMyka125 (imported) »

1) What sutures are used when tying/securing spermatic cord, stitching fascia and stitching scrotum?

absorbable or non-absorbable ?

2) If non-absorbable suture is used to tie up/secure spermatic cords,

are they left for ever inside you or they are removed by surgeon after everything has healed?

3) Do you know what sutures were used for you?

I was done with dissolvable sutures. The external ones took about 2 week to come out.

I would guess non absorbable for the spermatic chord since it needs to stay sealed

No, they would be left in place to keep all secure.
