AIM OF THE STUDY: To assess outcomes of staged Fowler-Stephens orchidopexy (FSO) in management of intra-abdominal testes (IAT) in six paediatric tertiary centres in the UK.
METHODS: Retrospective case note review for all patients undergoing open or laparoscopic staged FSO for IAT between January 2009 and March 2021 followed by at least one clinic visit in all six centres.
RESULTS: Across the six centres, 440 patients with IAT (298 unilateral, 74 bilateral) were identified, out of which 469 testes with complete records following 2 stage FSO were included in the study. Median follow-up was 17.2 Months (IQR 9-25 months). Testicular atrophy was documented at follow-up in 101 testes (22 %) with centre-specific atrophy rates ranging from 11 % to 37 %. 30 testes (6 %) re-ascended into the groin. Other reported complications included bladder injury (2 patients), ureteric injury (1 patient), external iliac vein injury (1 patient), inadvertent orchidectomy (3 patients), scrotal wound infection (5 patients), incisional hernia (1 patient) and port-site bleeding (1 patient).
CONCLUSION: Atrophy rates after staged FSO ranged from 11 % to 37 % across 6 paediatric surgery tertiary centres in the UK. Atrophy rates are higher than expected and a prospective study is warranted to compare FSO with alternative operative techniques such as gubernaculum-sparing and traction orchidopexy.
