Natural course of undescended testes after inguinoscrotal surgery.

Abstract:

PURPOSE:The purpose of the study is to study the natural course of undescended testes after inguinoscrotal surgery. METHODS:From 2003-2010, 24 boys were observed with 26 undescended testes after inguinoscrotal surgery; 12 had previously undergone inguinal hernia repair and 12 orchidopexy. Spontaneous descent was awaited and (re-)orchidopexy would only be performed in case of non-descent at puberty. The boys were assessed annually for testis position and for testis volume as measured by ultrasound. RESULTS:At the end of the study period, 19 testes had reached scrotal position; of these, 13 (68%) had descended spontaneously and 6 (32%) had been (re-)orchidopexied. No difference was found in the rate of spontaneous descent after previous orchidopexy or inguinal hernia repair (P=0.419). CONCLUSION:Spontaneous descent of undescended testes after inguinoscrotal surgery occurs regularly. In this study, it was observed in two out of every three cases.
