AI-generated summary
This is a randomized, single-blinded trial comparing the standard inguinal radical orchiectomy with an external oblique fascia sparing version for suspected testicular cancer. It aims to test whether sparing the external oblique fascia reduces postoperative pain, narcotic use, neuropathic pain, and complications. The study is for adults undergoing radical orchiectomy who are not currently using opioids. Participants are randomly assigned to one of the two surgical techniques to see which approach offers better postoperative outcomes. Exclusions include advanced disease (clinical T4), prior illicit substance or opioid abuse, recent chemotherapy or radiotherapy, opioid use within 1 month, and very large testicular masses requiring non-standard incisions.
