Age at Operation and Outcome of Undescended Test is in a Rural Setup
Journal Title: New Indian Journal of Surgery - Year 2019, Vol 10, Issue 4
Abstract
This is a review of 100 cases of undescended testes operated at the Indian Institute of Medical Science and Research, Warudi, over a period of 5 years. In the cities, these patients present early, usually soon after birth or in infancy but in a rural setup, the presentation is late, sometimes very late and sometimes for a different reason like hernia. As a result of late presentation, the incidence of atrophy in the undescended testes is high. Keywords: Testis; Undescended; Atrophy; Orchidopexy.
