摘要

This study was performed to summarize our clinical experience with testicular descent and fixation through a scrotal stria incision for the treatment of palpable cryptorchidism in children.This study included 1034 children with palpable cryptorchidism from March 2009 to March 2019.A scrotal stria incision was used to perform testicular descent and fixation.Overall,1020 children successfully underwent surgical testicular descent and fixation through a scrotal stria incision,and 14 patients underwent conversion to inguinal incision surgery.All patients were discharged 1-2 days after the operation.During hospitalization and follow-up,55 patients developed complications,including 10 patients with testicular retraction,7 with poor healing of the incision,and 38 with a scrotal hematoma.No patients developed testicular atrophy,an indirect inguinal hernia,or a hydrocoele.Testicular descent and fixation through a scrotal stria incision for the treatment of palpable cryptorchidism in children is safe and feasible in well-selected cases.This method has the advantages of no scarring and a good cosmetic effect.
