PROSPECTIVE STUDY ON SURGICAL MANAGEMENT OF UNDESCENDED TESTIS IN A TERTIARY HOSPITAL
View through CrossRef
Undescended testis is one of the most common surgical problems
encountered among paediatric age group. Undescended testis, age of
diagnosis plays important role in outcome. In clinical examination of
groin and scrotum, palpable testis and non-palpable testis can be
categorized. Based on palpable or non-palpable patients management
course differs. If retractile testis treatment plan altered, however
managed conservatively and monitored periodically. Open
Orchidopexy is done for palpable testis and laparoscopic surgeries are
done for non-palpable testis .Ultrasound imaging plays a role in
locating non-palpable testis and assessing testicular volume.
Undescended testis, if left untreated can result in malignancy,
infertility, psychological problems, testicular trauma, and torsion
testis. Early diagnosis and treatment is of paramount importance.
Undescended testis associates with other anomalies such as congenital
inguinal hernia, hypospadias and sexual disorders.
