Surgical correction of the undescended testis is frequently postponed beyond the optimal time, namely, 6 years of age.An accurate diagnosis of undescended testis may be made during the first year of life. Complications and mistakes arising from misdiagnosis of undescended testis and retracted testis may, therefore, be prevented by recording findings.The purpose of this article is to present the arguments in favour of early diagnosis and operative treatment of undescended testis, and to correct possible misconceptions.
隐睾的外科矫正手术常常被推迟到超过最佳时间,即6岁之后。在生命的第一年就可以对隐睾做出准确诊断。因此,通过记录检查结果,可以预防因隐睾和回缩睾丸误诊而产生的并发症和错误。本文的目的是阐述支持隐睾早期诊断和手术治疗的观点,并纠正可能存在的误解。
