Abstract

We base the surgical treatment of cryptorchidism on three points: a) identification of the testicle; b) release of the testicle and funiculolysis; c) fixing of the testicle. Out of a total of 95 cases of cryptorchidism, three presented no testicle and 92 were lowered into their sac in a single surgical operation. We consider the performing of careful funiculolysis to be essential.
