Non-palpabl testis tanısında laparoskopinin yeri

Abstract

In pediatric urology, cryptorchidism is frequent condition and nearly 20 % of the undescended testes are non-polpable and are localized within in the distal end of the inguinal ring or intraabdominally. Laparoscopy has been a very useful diagnostic tool in these patients who have always been challenging to manage.In this study, we retrospctively evaluated our initial experiences of diagnostic laparoscopy in the dignosis of non-palpable testes.
