What is Tcup™?
Tcup™ is the first anatomically engineered scrotal support cushion developed by a urologic surgeon for clinical use in post-surgical recovery, wound care, and long-term patient management. Unlike improvised solutions like towel rolls or foam wedges, Tcup™ provides stable, targeted scrotal elevation to improve patient comfort, reduce the risk of skin breakdown, and support nursing workflow efficiency. Whether you're managing vasectomy recovery, hydrocele care, or scrotal wound healing, Tcup™ simplifies testicular support while promoting better clinical outcomes.
Clinical Testing in Real-World Care Settings
-
The images below show Tcup™ in clinical use during real-world testing at a skilled nursing and rehabilitation facility, where it was used for post-surgical scrotal elevation, testicular swelling, and wound care positioning.
-
Clinical scenarios included routine recovery care and more complex cases—such as severe scrotal edema from congestive heart failure-related swelling. The images below demonstrate how Tcup™ provides stable, anatomical support across varying patient needs.

Tcup™ combines patient-centered comfort with clinically efficient scrotal support, making it a valuable tool for post-vasectomy care, urology clinics, rehabilitation centers, and long-term care facilities.
Scrotal Elevation in Hospitals, Rehab, and Long-Term Care Settings
Scrotal elevation is a medically recommended intervention for conditions such as post-vasectomy swelling, scrotal edema, orchitis, and post-surgical wound care. Yet in many hospitals, clinics, and long-term care facilities, elevation is performed using makeshift supports like towel rolls, foam wedges, or pillows. These are solutions that are often unstable, hard to position, and inconsistent across care teams.
Tcup™ offers a purpose-built, anatomically designed scrotal support device that improves patient comfort, reduces nursing labor time, and promotes standardized care protocols in busy clinical settings.
Key Clinical Benefits
1. Reduces Care Burden on Staff
Nurses and aides spend considerable time repositioning ad hoc supports such as towels or blankets. Tcup™ eliminates the need for frequent adjustments, maintaining its position throughout the day and reducing hands-on time for repositioning.
2. Prevents Costly Skin Issues
Skin breakdown in the groin and perineal area can escalate into costly medical complications, especially in long-term care settings. Tcup™ supports proactive positioning to reduce moisture-related and pressure-related injuries.
3. Supports Healing and Reduces Complications
Tcup™ provides reliable elevation and cushioning, helping minimize post-operative edema, pressure-related skin breakdown, and scrotal discomfort. This is especially important in cases involving compromised circulation, prolonged immobility, or wound care.
4. Enhances Patient Comfort and Dignity
The ergonomic shape and soft material of Tcup™ offer significant comfort improvements over makeshift alternatives. Many patients have expressed appreciation for the relief provided, reporting better rest, less pain, and improved tolerance for care routines.
5. Demonstrated Durability in High-Risk Cases
During clinical testing, Tcup™ maintained structural integrity and effectiveness in cases of extreme scrotal swelling and abnormally heavy scrotums. For the cases where the most support is needed, Tcup™ stands out as the best possible option for providers and patients alike.
