Tierexperimentelle Untersuchungen zur Klebeorchidopexie
1978
An 37 Kaninchen wurden Versuche zur Histotoxizitat von Butyl-2-Cyanoacrylatkleber bei der Orchidopexie im Vergleich zur herkommlichen Nahtfixierung durchgefuhrt. Beurteilt wurden die lokale Entzundungsreaktion an Klebstoff und Faden und die Veranderung der Tubulusquerschnittsflachen und Spermatogonienzahl der behandelten Hoden. Dabei konnte eine Verbesserung der Ergebnisse durch Kleben nicht nachgewiesen werden. Versuche an P815-Mastozytom-, EL 4 Sarkom- und ASW-Mauslymphozyten-Zellkulturen ergaben eine deutliche Zytotoxizitat von Butyl-2-Cyanoacrylat. Wesentliche Vorteile der Klebeorchidopexie gegenuber der bisher herkommlichen Nahtfixierung werden nicht beobachtet, wegen moglicher immunol…
Laparoscopy for Abdominal Testes: Nationwide Analysis of German Routine Data
2021
Introduction: Laparoscopy has been used for the evaluation of impalpable testes for more than 30 years. However, its use for intra-abdominal testes has never been evaluated in a population-based ap...
1043 Evaluation of Pediatric Testes After Surgery by Laser Doppler and White Light Spectroscopy
2012
Aim To evaluate testes after unilateral orchiopexy Laser Doppler and white light spectroscopy and compare microcirculation with contralaterat testis and healthy controls. Methods A combination of the laser Doppler (determination of blood flow) and white light spectroscopy (determination of oxygen saturation and hemoglobin amount) is used to determine microcirculation at two different depth levels non-invasively. Patients were recruited after unilateral orchiopexy. Controls were age-matched boys without relevant disease. Ethical approval was obtained. Results 99 patients were included after unilateral orchiopexy at the age of 3.5 years (+-2.9 years). 65% underwent surgery after their second …
1583 Clinical and Ultrasound Examination after Unilateral Orchiopexy
2012
Aim To compare testis volume and ultrasound texture post unilateral orchiopexy with the other side. Methods Clinical re-examination and ultrasound measurement of testicle volume and echostructure were performed in 99 children after unilateral orchiopexy, performed between 2003 and 2007. Results Intraoperatively, 30 testis were described as hypoplastic. further 5 patients displayed pathologic funicular structures. On Follow-up clinical exam, 45 patients displayed a small or atrophic testis on the side of surgery. In 10 patients, the testis was described as bigger on the side of surgery. On ultrasound, 65 patients had similar pictures on the side of surgery compared to the other side. In the …
Fertility in males after childhood, adolescent, and adult inguinal operations
2018
Abstract Background/purpose Inguinal hernia repair and orchidopexy are among the most common operations in boys. The impact on future fertility has not been conclusively defined. This study evaluates sperm quality after previous inguinal surgery. Methods Spermiograms of men with a desire to conceive children were analyzed. History of previous inguinal surgery (hernia repair, orchidopexy, varicocele ligation) was correlated with sperm quality. Other influential factors (age, BMI, chronic medication, tobacco use) were also tested. Results A total of 333 patients were included. Overall, 12.6% of the subjects had undergone previous inguinal surgery. Of these, 17 (43%) were inguinal hernia repai…
Management of undescended testes: European Association of Urology/European Society for Paediatric Urology Guidelines.
2016
Summary Context Undescended testis is the most common endocrinological disease in the male newborn period. Incidence varies between 1.0% and 4.6% in full-term neonates, with rates as high as 45% in preterm neonates. Failure or delay of treatment can result in reduced fertility and/or increased testicular cancer risk in adulthood. Objective To provide recommendations for the diagnosis and treatment of boys with undescended testes which reduce the risk of impaired fertility and testicular cancer in adulthood. Evidence acquisition Embase and Pubmed were searched for all relevant publications, from 1990 to 2015 limited to English language. Data were narratively synthesized in light of methodolo…
