Orchidectomy involves surgical removal of testicular tissue through an approach selected according to the patient's diagnosis. A unilateral orchidectomy removes one testicle, while bilateral orchidectomy removes both. In patients undergoing treatment for hormone-sensitive prostate cancer, bilateral removal of the testicles reduces testosterone production and may form part of an overall androgen-deprivation treatment strategy.
