Penoscrotal approach aids this, which is what Clavell does. It's harder or impossible to tuck all the tubing away fully hidden from above with an infrapubic approach. Doesn't mean one is better or worse, just each has its challenges.
It is not only about penoscrotal, but the fact that he actually cuts the tubes to make them shorter. Where most doctors use the preconnected length and often end up with redundant tubing running circles in the scrotum.
That is part of it and can contribute if the surgeon just stuffs a bunch of extra tubing in. But Hakky cuts the tubes to length also, yet was very clear that tubing being palpable/visible was more of an issue with PS approach, when I spoke to him.
