Can I Get Testicle Implants If I Previously Had Silicone Injections To The Scrotum?

Q: Dr. Eppley, Wanted to get some info about testicle implants. I currently have silicone in my sack and would like to get it removed but replaced with silicone testicles. Is that possible?

A: If one has had silicone injections in their scrotum the silicone masses/granulomas first need to be removed before testicle implants can be placed. When done concurrently the risk of complications is significant and thus I don’t recommend it.
