ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss the laparoscopic diagnosis and treatment for non-palpable undescended testis.Methods Laparoscopy was utilized in the diagnosis and treatment of 29 cases of non-palpable undescended testis(34 sides) from July 2002 to March 2005.Results The diagnosis was clarified in all the 29 cases.Intraabdominal testis was found in 21 sides(primary orchidopexy in 16 sides and two-staged Fowler-Stephens orchidopexy in 5 sides) and absent testis,13 sides.Follow-up observations for 0.5~1 year in 29 cases showed no testicular retraction or atrophy.Conclusions Laparoscopic intervention,characterized with accurate diagnosis,little invasion,and quick recovery,can be the first choice for the diagnosis and treatment of(non-palpable) undescended testis.The primary orchidopexy of testis may have satisfactory results if possible.
