Abstract
Abstract Introduction: Cryptorchidism is the most common abnormality of the male sexual development and one of the most common diagnoses in children hospitalized in the Pediatric Surgery Clinic. The diagnosis is mainly clinical: the testis cannot be seen or palpated in the scrotum. For this malformation, the treatment is always surgical: the orchiopexy. Material and method: This is a retrospective study performed in 2012 in our clinic. The purpose of the study is to report our experience during a year in the management of this abnormality. Results: There is a standard technique with two incisions (inguinal and scrotal) which was used in 77.12% of cases and a newer technique (Bianchi), with a single incision (scrotal), used in 22.88% of cases. Conclusion: The results after surgery for cryptorchidism in every case were good, with both techniques.
