INTRODUCTION: Classically, surgical approach for palpable undescended testis (pUDT) consists is an inguinal orchidopexy. In fact, a double incision allows an adequate mobilization of the spermatic cord and an easy dissection of a patent processus vaginalis and also to perform a subdartos pouch. For reduce potential mobility of the inguinal approach, in 1989 Bianchi and Squire proposed a transcrotal orchidopexy, using a high scrotal incision. We report our experiences and retrospectively evaluate the feasibility and postoperative success of the transcrotal approach for treatment of pUDT.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: From January 2012 to June 2014, 217 patients, affected by pUDT were treated at our Institution, for a total of 231 orchidopexies (203 monolateral pUDT, 14 bilateral pUDT). Patients, in whom, under anesthesia, the testis could be moved to the neck of the scrotum, have been treated with a transcrotal approach using a high scrotal incision. All patients have been clinically followed up at 1 week and at 1, 2, 3, and 6 months, at 1 year, and then annually and using scrotal sonography with color-Doppler at 2, 3, and 6 months.
RESULTS: A total of 205 pUDT (88.7%) were considered eligible for transcrotal. Eight (3.9%) pUDT, that were first approached transcrotally, have been converted to inguinal approach. At follow-up, two moderate scrotal hematomas and one inguinal hernia were noted. No recurrence or testicular atrophy was showed in transcrotal approached testes, while 2 recurrences out of 26 procedures (7.7%) were displayed after inguinal orchidopexy.
CONCLUSIONS: In our experience, transcrotal approach is possible in almost 90% of pUDT. No major complication, such as recurrence or testicular atrophy, has been complained. Just 3 out of the 205 cases (1.5%) reported minor complications and 1 of which required a successful day-case procedure. Our data confirm that transcrotal orchidopexy can be considered effective, safe, and with a success rate being equivalent or better to classical inguinal approach.
