Removal of the cancerous organ, the testicle, and accurate histological examination. Preventing the spread of the disease. Based on the histological examination and further investigations, a treatment plan and follow-up plan is drawn up.

• significant blood loss that can only be repaired by a blood transfusion,
• damage to a large vessel,
• blood poisoning, general infection of the body, temporary or permanent damage to vital organs (brain, heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, bone marrow), a serious life-threatening condition.
• opening of the abdominal cavity, intestinal damage, intestinal effusion leading to peritonitis – treatment: exploratory surgery,

• wound infection, wound healing, prolonged wound exudation,
• deep vein thrombosis (blood clots in the deep veins of the lower limb and pelvis),
• pulmonary embolism (a blood clot lodged in the pulmonary arteries, leading to lung failure and, in the most serious cases, death),
• sepsis, a general infection of the body, which is a serious life-threatening condition with temporary or permanent damage to vital organs (brain, heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, bone marrow).
• Treatment depends on the underlying cause or focus, further surgical intervention and medication, intensive care,
• suture failure, consequent peritonitis, formation of abdominal abscesses,
• bleeding, post-operative bleeding in the surgical site,
• transient urinary retention following spinal anaesthesia, which may require urinary catheter drainage
• wound healing disturbance,
• development of inguinal hernia

• a detailed examination and surgical preparation, usually performed as an outpatient, to identify and reduce potential risks and to assess the patient’s ability to tolerate surgery.
• after admission to the ward, a review of the documentation, chart and care sheets should be completed.
• other preparations, e.g. check-ups or additional examinations as recommended by the anaesthesiologist.
• a positive urine culture result may require the administration of antibiotics

• s.e.blood transfusion (you will receive a separate written and verbal information sheet and sign a separate consent form),
• immediately after the operation, depending on the patient’s condition, you may be admitted to intensive care for a few days,
• diet may vary according to the doctor’s instructions
• early mobilisation, waking up after the operation

• gradual recovery of physical activity and exertion,
• avoiding heavy physical exertion for six weeks,
• return to a normal diet as prescribed by a doctor,
• regular, plentiful fluid intake,
