Can I Get Testicle Implants If I Have Had Hodgkin’s lymphoma?

Q: Dr. Eppley, I was diagnosed and treated for Hodgkin’s Lymphoma twenty years ago. As a result of the chemotherapy I have hypogonadism. Is the wrap around implant an option i could consider?

A: In cases of very small testicles the superior testicular enhancement procedure is the side by side displacement technique which can easily overwhelm/hide the small testicles. Wrap around testicle implants have a high risk of disengagement when there is little to hang onto.
