title: Insertion of testicular prosthesis: use of vaginal speculum.
abstract: We have used a vaginal speculum to insert a testicular prosthesis through the inguinal approach over the past four years. We have found this technique to be easily performed and reproducible in allowing the testicular prosthesis to be placed in the normal dependent position in the scrotum.
