Brief Summary:
This is a comparative study to see the outcome of yransection versus ligation of internal spermatic vessels in first stage laparoscopic Fowler-Stephens orchidopexy for intra-abdominal testis in assisting the descent of the testis to the base of scrotum during the second stage
Detailed Description:
Cryptorchidism is one of the most commin congenital deformities of male newborns known as undescended testis UDT The incidence ranges according to gestational age affecting 10-46 of full-term infants and 11-45 of preterm infants UDT is a condition in which the testicles are not found at the base of the scrotum Studies have shown that the undescended testicle has a potential of spontaneous descent during the first 3 months of life and is less likely to do so after 6 months of age In almost 20 of cases the undescended testes are not palpable increasing the difficulty of investigations and treatment and 30 of these cases are also intra-abdominal If UDT left untreated it can cause histological alterations of the testicular cells and increasing of the risks of infertility
As of treatment of UDT laparoscopic surgery is for most surgeons the preferred technique Several techniques have been described for laparoscopic orchidopexy After spermatic vascular transection single-stage testicular descent fixing was carried out as Fowler and Stephens FSO first described in 1959 Since 1996 a two-stage laparoscopic Fowler-Stephens technique involving preservation of the gubernacular vessels and performing an entirely laparoscopic second stage The second stage is presently performed 6-9 months after the first
Recently laparoscopic FSO has been adopted to treat high-level IATs for its minimally invasive wound and acceptable success rate
