Answer:

bilateral orchidectomy

Step-by-step explanation:

Removal surgeries: The medical terms for surgeries that involve the complete or partial removal of an organ carry the suffix –ectomy. For example, the surgical removal of a testis is an orchidectomy, and the removal of the vas deferens is a vasectomy. Castration (or bilateral orchidectomy) is the complete removal of the testes.
