Abstract

We present a new approach to high intraabdominal testis (IAT) for elongation of the testicular vessels without division. The technique entails fixation of the testis to a point one inch above and medial to the contralateral anterior superior iliac spine for 12 weeks. Subdartos orchiopexy is then done as the second stage. Both stages are laparoscopically assisted. The a new approach to high intraabdominal testis, two-stage laparoscopic traction-orchiopexy, is useful and resulted in significant elongation of the testicular vessels without atrophy. It is a safe and valid alternative to the two-stage laparoscopic Fowler–Stephens technique, which entails division of the main testicular vessels.
