ABSTRACT
Case series. Pediatric surgical department of B V Hospital [QAMC] Bahawalpur and Allied Hospital Faisalabad. From April 2005 to Mar 2007. Cryptorchidism is most frequent presentation in pediatric population. Laparoscopy has become [Gold Standard] in the diagnosis and therapy of nonpalpable undescended testis. We present our two year experience in the management of 40 cases at two centers. The age of the patients ranged from 9 months to 12 years. Laparoscopy was done to localize the testis prior to surgery. Thirty four patients underwent one stage laparoscopic orchidopexy, 7 patients had open orchidopexy and 3 needed two stage Fowler-Stephen orchiodopexy. Laparoscopy is a valuable tool in both diagnosis and treatment of nonpalpable testis
