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.
