Abstract:
Objective By analyzing the cases of cryptorchidism owing to dysplasia in children to explore how to apply orchidectomy in the treatment of children with cryptorchidism. Methods Two hundred and seven cryptorchi-dism patients with dysplasia who underwent surgical treatment were collected in the Department of Urology,Anhui Province Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Anhui Medical University from July 2005 to May 2016. All the patients were true cryptorchidism,aged from 0. 6 to 11. 4 years [(4. 7 ± 1. 2)years]. There were 78 cases of left cryptorchidism,104 cases of right cryptorchidism and 25 cases of bilateral cryptorchidism. All cases underwent ultrasound examination be-fore surgery,showing that there were no testis in 53 cases,testicular atrophy or dysplasia in 154 cases. All cases under-went surgical treatment,including 149 cases of inguinal incision alone,groin incision combined with laparoscopic explo-ration in 47 cases and simple laparoscopic surgery in 11 cases. Communication with the parents of all the children was conducted during operation. One hundred and sixty - seven cases of mild and moderate testicular dysplasia underwent testicular descending fixation. Forty cases of severe dysplasia or testicular atrophy,including 16 cases of intrahepatic unilateral cryptorchidism and 22 cases of unilateral cryptorchidism outside the abdomen which underwent testicular resection,while 2 cases of bilateral cryptorchidism with severe dysplasia underwent bilateral testicular descent fixation after communication with the parents of the children during operation. All the specimens were sent for pathological examination after the operation. One hundred eighty - six cases were followed up from 1 to 128 months [(53 ± 8) months],and 21 cases were lost. Ultrasound examination was performed from 3 to 6 months after the operation to observe the development of bilateral testis and whether testicular dysplasia or testicular atrophy existed. Results All the children successfully underwent the operation and discharged from hospital. The group who underwent testicular had confirmed slim blood vessels in spermatic cord and poor testicular development through operation,while another group in postoperative follow up ultrasound showed that there was no obvious testicular - like structure in 6 cases,complete atrophy in 12 cases and partial atrophy in 48 cases and no atrophy in 93 cases. No patients had testicular resection again and no canceration after the operation. The healthy sides of the testicular resection in another group all had normal development. Conclusions Mild and moderate testicular dysplasia in children can choose testicular descending fixation,while severe dysplasia or testicular atrophy should select a reasonable surgical approach after communication with families.
