"We must not neglect proper treatment and care for the occurrence of epididymal malformations, as such diseases have brought too much impact on our patients, and only with correct treatment and care can we recover earlier.". So, what about the malformation of the epididymis?
How to treat epididymis malformation
When epididymis malformations do not affect fertility, treatment is not required. Segmental epididymal atresia can be treated with epididymal vasectomy. Two methods of epididymal vasectomy, Silber and Wagenknecht, were used under a 10 to 20 magnification surgical microscope. The main difference between the two methods is that the Silber method uses an expanded epididymal tube to anastomose with the vas deferens end-to-end, while the Wagenknecht method uses an expanded epididymal tube to anastomose with the vas deferens end-to-end. Cut open the expanded epididymal tube, first pick up the fluid flowing from the broken end of the epididymal tube to search for sperm. After determining the presence of sperm, use 11-0 non-invasive nylon thread to anastomose the epididymal tube with the vas deferens mucosa, generally intermittently suturing 4-6 needles, and then use 9-0 non-invasive nylon thread to anastomose the epididymal capsule with the muscular layer of the vas deferens.
How to Care for Epididymis Malformation
Symptomatic care
When using Western medicine for treatment, it is necessary to pay attention to age, gender, and condition selection of drugs. During treatment, attention should be paid to observing changes in the condition, whether there is any drug allergy, drug rash, liver damage, and leukopenia. Regular review of liver function and blood routine should be conducted. When using traditional Chinese medicine for treatment, it is necessary to pay attention to the method of decoction and medication, as well as the taboos during the medication process.
Dietary Care
Diet should be based on the principle of high calorie, high protein, high vitamin, moderate fat and sodium intake, and less spicy and stimulating seasoning foods should be used. Food should be soft and easy to digest, rich in nutrients; Do not eat high iodine foods such as kelp, seaweed, jellyfish, seaweed, and algae to prevent poor control of hyperthyroidism. Do not smoke, drink alcohol, strong tea, or coffee. You should eat more foods that contain more metal elements such as copper, zinc, and iron, as well as foods that contain tyrosine and minerals, such as meat, animal liver, eggs, milk, vegetables, and soy products. Avoid eating foods that are rich in vitamin C.
3. Condition nursing
The main purpose is to observe whether there are symptoms of hypermetabolic syndrome throughout the body, whether the thyroid gland is enlarged, whether the eyeball is protruding, whether there are abnormalities in the nervous system, cardiovascular system, digestive system, blood system, reproductive system, and motor system, and whether there are abnormal manifestations such as edema, flushing, and moist fingers on the skin and extremities. Pay special attention to observing changes in body temperature and cardiovascular system to prevent hyperthyroidism crisis and hyperthyroidism heart disease.
