The study population was all patients who underwent varicocelectomy surgery between 2013 and 2021. Data is presented in the form of  graphs.Results: The distribution of varicocele lateralization showed that out of 35 respondents, 23 respondents (66%) had one side varicoceles and 12 respondents (34%) both sides varicoceles. The distribution based on successful pregnancy shows that out of 35 respondents, 10 respondent couples (29%) have already gotten pregnant, 25 respondents (71%) haven't gotten pregnant. The distribution of varicocele lateralization in respondents who have children shows that 70% of respondents are one side and 30% of respondents are both sides. Complications of discomfort revealed that 88% of research participants had no complaints of postoperative pain, whereas 11% occasionally suffered pain following varicocele surgery.Conclusion: Varicocele that is one side is more common. Patients with one side varicocele who have surgery are more likely to become parents than those with both sides varicocele.

Abstract

AbstractBackground: Hormonal therapy is one treatment option for prostate cancer. There are two main categories of hormone therapy: surgical therapy and non-surgical therapy.  Orchiectomy is the surgical method of hormone therapy; medication supplementation is the non-surgical method. Many kinds of indicators are used to track the advancement of patients with prostate cancer receiving hormone therapy. tPSA levels are one of the markers that are regularly evaluated.Methods: In this retrospective study, PSA levels in patients with prostate adenocarcinoma cancer were evaluated before and after bilateral orchiectomy.  Use the search terms "prostate cancer" and "orchiectomy" to find research subject data in the UGM Academic Hospital's medical records installation between 2020 and 2023. The study's findings will be shown in a graphic and statistical analysis while protecting the subjects' anonymity.Results: Most of the participants (n=18, 60.0%) have pre-orchiectomy tPSA level of more than 30 ng/mL, while only almost a quarter (n=7, 23.3%) of participants have post-orchiectomy tPSA level of more than 30 ng/mL. The two research groups (p<0.0001) before and after the orchiectomy procedure, significantly differ between the two research groups based on Wilcoxon paired sample test analysis.Conclusion: TPSA levels are considerably decreased by bilateral orchiectomy.
