Transection of internal spermatic vessels in first stage laparoscopic Fowler-Stephens orchidopexy for intra-abdominal testis: Half of the patients will undergo transection of internal spermatic vessels in first stage laparoscopic Fowler-Stephens orchidopexy for intra-abdominal testis.

Ligation of internal spermatic vessels in first stage laparoscopic Fowler-Stephens orchidopexy for intra-abdominal testis: Half of the patients will undergo ligation of internal spermatic vessels in first stage laparoscopic Fowler-Stephens orchidopexy for intra-abdominal testis

Study summary

This is a comparative study to see the outcome of yransection versus ligation of internal spermatic vessels in first stage laparoscopic Fowler-Stephens orchidopexy for intra-abdominal testis in assisting the descent of the testis to the base of scrotum during the second stage

Inclusion Criteria: All patients with Unilateral or Bilateral impalpable testis Exclusion Criteria: 1. Previous Laparotomy surgery 2. Previous Ventriculo-peritoneal shunt 3. Previous laparoscopy for impalpable testis (outside study) 4. Previous Inguinal/Scrotal surgery 5. Disorder of sexual differentiation 6. Abnormal Karyotyping 7. Intra-operative Inguinal testis 8. Ipsilateral testis : Peeping/ Vas internal internal ring / Vanished / Streak / Ovotestis / Ovary. 9. Contralateral : Streak/ Ovotestis/ Ovary

Primary outcome measure(s)

  • testis-to-ring distance in mm at the second stage — At 6 months after the first stage (during the second stage)
    After either of transection or ligation of the spermatic vessels during the first stage of laparoscopic Fowler-Stephens orchidopexy, the location of the testis away from the internal inguinal ring (the testis-to-ring distance in mm) will be measured during the 2nd stage (degree of descent) 6 months after the first stage and compared among the two groups.
  • Testicular volume in mL — At 6 months after the first stage (during the second stage)
    After either of transection or ligation of the spermatic vessels during the first stage of laparoscopic Fowler-Stephens orchidopexy, the testicular volume in mL will be assessed intraoperatively during the second stage (6 months after the first stage) and compared among the two groups.
