The outcome of laparoscopic assisted orchidopexy in very young children: A single hospital experience

Journal of Pediatric Urology Mar 23, 2021

Al Hindi S, et al. - The present study was conducted to evaluate males aged 6 months or less who undergo laparoscopic-assisted orchidopexy for intraabdominal testes to establish the safety, efficacy, and benefit in the defined age group. Between January 2014 and December 2018, 19 boys at or below 6 months of age, who had laparoscopic-assisted orchidopexy for intraabdominal undescended testes at Salmaniya Medical Complex in Bahrain were prospectively evaluated. Demographics, laterality, testicular locations, testicular volumes, operative time, complications, and duration of hospitalization and follow-up were examined. Early orchiopexy was found to be safe and effective. The findings suggested that at an early age, laparoscopic-assisted orchidopexy was beneficial and resulted in normal testicular volumes before and after surgery.
