Circumcision-incision orchidopexy: A novel technique for palpable, low inguinal undescended testis.

ABSTRACT: Given that both orchidopexy and circumcision are commonly done in a single operative setting, we adopted a technique of combined orchidopexy and circumcision using a single circumcision incision. We applied this new technique to boys with palpable, low inguinal cryptorchidism. Here we describe a case series of 7 boys who underwent concurrent orchidopexy via the circumcision site. We present this novel technique and discuss our preliminary outcomes, including the anatomic basis and feasibility. The technique appears to be an alternative for concurrent circumcision and cryptorchid cases with palpable, low inguinal testes.

Comparison of Single-Incision Scrotal Orchiopexy and Traditional Two-Incision Inguinal Orchiopexy for Primary Palpable Undescended Testis in Children: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Project description:PurposeTo compare the safety, efficacy, and cosmetic results of single-incision scrotal orchiopexy (SISO) and traditional two-incision inguinal orchiopexy (TTIO) for primary palpable undescended testes (PUDTs) in children.Materials and methodsA systematic literature search of all relevant studies published on PubMed, Embase, Medline, Cochrane Library, Web of Science database, and Wanfang data until July 2021 was conducted. The operative time, hospitalization duration, conversion rate, wound infection or dehiscence, scrotal hematoma or swelling, testicular atrophy, reascent, hernia or hydrocele, analgesics needs, and cosmetic results were compared between SISO and TTIO using the Mantel-Haenszel or inverse-variance method.ResultsA total of 17 studies involving 2,627 children (1,362 SISOs and 1,265 TTIOs) were included in the final analysis. The conversion rate of SISO was 3.6%. The SISO approach had a statistically significant shorter operative time than the TTIO approach for PUDT (weighted mean difference-11.96, 95% confidence interval -14.33 to -9.59, I2 = 79%, P < 0.00001) and a shorter hospital stay (weighted mean difference-1.05, 95% confidence interval -2.07 to -0.03, P = 0.04). SISO needed fewer analgesics and had better cosmetic results than TTIO. SISO had a similar total, short-term, or long-term complication rate with TTIO.ConclusionCompared with TTIO, SISO has the advantages of shorter operative time, shorter hospitalization duration, less postoperative pain, and better cosmetic appealing results. SISO is a safe, effective, promising, and potential minimal invasive surgical approach for PUDT. SISO is an alternative to TTIO in selected cryptorchid patients, especially for lower positioned ones.Systematic review registrationhttps://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO/, identifier: CRD42021268562.

Treatment trends for undescended testis and impact of guideline changes a medical health care analysis of orchidopexy and cryptorchidism in Germany between 2006 und 2020.

Project description:BackgroundThe last decades revealed new scientific knowledge regarding the fertility and potential malignancy of undescended testis AQ2(UDT). Accordingly, many guidelines changed their recommendation concerning timing of therapy, with the goal of an earlier time of surgery.MethodsWe analyzed the number of new diagnosis and performed surgeries in predefined age groups provided by the obligatory annual reports of German hospitals in the reimbursement.INFO"-tool between 2006 and 2020.ResultsOverall, 124,741 cases were analyzed. We showed a slight increase in performed surgeries in the first year by 2% per year with a main increase till 2011, a constant number of surgeries between first and 4th year and a decrease of surgeries between 5 and 14th year of living with a main decrease till 2009 by 3% per year.ConclusionEven if our results illustrate an increasing adaption of the guideline's recommendation, there is still a significant number of patients who receive later treatment. More research about the reasons and circumstances for the latter is needed.

A closer look to the timing of orchidopexy in undescended testes and adherence to the AWMF-guideline.

Project description:BackgroundTo lower the risk of testicular malignancies and subfertility, international guidelines recommend orchidopexy for undescended testis (UDT) before the age of 12-18 months. Previous studies reported low rates of 5-15% of timely surgery. Most of these studies are based on DRG and OPS code-based data from healthcare system institutions that do not distinguish between congenital and acquired UDT.MethodsIn a retrospective study data of all boys who underwent orchidopexy in a university hospital and two outpatient surgical departments from 2009 to 2022 were analyzed. The data differentiates congenital from acquired UDT.ResultsOut of 2694 patients, 1843 (68.4%) had congenital and 851 (31.6%) had acquired UDT. In 24.9% of congenital cases surgery was performed before the age of 12 months. The median age at surgery for congenital UDT was 16 months (range 7-202). Over the years there was an increased rate of boys operated on before the age of 2 (40% in 2009, 60% in 2022). The median age fluctuated over the years between 21 and 11 months without a trend to younger ages.. The covid pandemic did not lead to an increase of the median age at surgery. The median time between referral and surgery was 46 days (range 1-1836). Reasons for surgery after 12 months of age were a delayed referral to pediatric surgeries (51.2%), followed by relevant comorbidities (28.2%).ConclusionCompared to recent literature, out data show that a closer look at details enables a more realistic approach. Still, there is no trend towards the recommended age for surgical treatment observable, but the rate of timely operated boys with congenital UDT is significantly higher than stated in literature.

UNDESCENDED TESTIS: A STUDY OF 50 CASES.

Project description:Fifty consecutive cases of undescended testis treated at a service hospital over a period of 3 years from January 1993 to December 1995 were studied. Only 2 patients (4%) were below the age of 2 years and 25 (50%) were past the age of 15 years. Two cases presented with seminoma in intraobdominal testis. Ultrasonography was found unreliable in localizing the impalpable testis. Subdartos pouch orchiopexy (Winsburry-White) was the definitive procedure adopted in 21 out of the 25 orchiopexies performed and the results were good. Orchidectomy seems the best option of treatment in post-pubertal patients with unilateral symptomatic maldescent.

Spontaneous rupture of seminoma in undescended testis with hemoperitoneum: a rare presentation.

Project description:Cryptorchidism is associated with increased risk of malignancy and infertility. We present a case of a 30-year-old man who presented to the Emergency Department of our tertiary care hospital with spontaneous intra-abdominal rupture of the seminoma in undescended testis with hemoperitoneum. This is a rare presentation of seminoma and emphasises the importance of scrotal examination in young men presenting with acute abdomen. Surgical management is the definitive treatment and should be instituted as soon as possible, after appropriate resuscitation.

Single-incision approach for bilateral inguinal hernia repair in children: A retrospective study.

Project description:To introduce the use of a new surgical approach named single-incision bilateral inguinal herniorrhaphy (SBIH) in pediatric surgical population.This was a STROBE-compliant retrospective cohort study using data from 101 patients who had undergone bilateral inguinal herniorrhaphy in our institution. Children with bilateral inguinal hernias without contraindications for surgery, ranging in age from 6 months to 12 years, were included. Fifty-six children with bilateral inguinal hernias underwent SBIH (SBIH group) and 45 patients underwent laparoscopic bilateral inguinal herniorrhaphy (LBIH) (LBIH group). Differences in operative time, postoperative pain, recurrence, and complications between the 2 groups were analyzed. Patient satisfaction with cosmetic result was also investigated using questionnaires.There were no statistically significant differences in operative time (P = .2257), postoperative pain (P = .0607), recurrence (P = .8756), and complications (P = .7467) between the 2 groups. Interestingly, the operation time of girls in SBIH group was significantly shorter than that of the boys in this group (P < .0001), but also shorter than that of girls in LBIH group (P = .0038). Postoperative pain for boys was lower in SBIH group than in the LBIH group (P = .0340). No ascending testis, testicular atrophy, and hydrocele occurred in either group. According to the questionnaire, both procedures had equally high levels of satisfaction for cosmetic results (P = .7531).Initial results show that SBIH for pediatric patients, regardless of gender, is a safe and feasible procedure compared with LBIH with an equally low recurrence rate, few complication, and satisfactory cosmetic outcomes.

The SWISS IOL Technique (Small-Width Incision Scleral Suture): A Mini-Invasive Technique.

Project description:PurposeTo evaluate the outcomes and safety of a minimally invasive technique for sutured IOL scleral fixation in case of compromised capsular and iris support.Materials and methodsIn this retrospective study, we explain our mini-invasive technique and assess the outcomes in terms of visual acuity, pre- or postoperative complications, and IOL position (Sensar AR40e, AMO) in a case series of three patients.ResultsThe expected best corrected visual acuity could be achieved after one month. Surgeries were uneventful with a stable eye. No postoperative complications occurred except for one patient who had a conjunctival disinsertion. Neither postoperative hypotony nor raised IOP was found. Additionally, no patient experienced corneal edema at one week control, IOL dislocation, vitreous hemorrhage, or new pupil's irregularity.ConclusionsIn conclusion, each scleral technique has its own advantages and its inherent postoperative complications. To date, there is no evidence of superiority of any single technique. By improving our scleral sutured lens techniques, we could improve peroperative ocular stability, potentially decrease postoperative complication rate, and offer a rapid recovery with a stable visual acuity within a month.

Mesh-fixation technique for inguinal hernia repair: umbrella review.

Project description:BackgroundMesh-based repair is the standard of surgical care for symptomatic inguinal hernias. Many systematic reviews and meta-analyses (SRMAs) addressed various aspects of these procedures. This umbrella review aimed to report the evidence from all previous SRMAs for open and laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair.MethodsSRMAs were identified from MEDLINE, Scopus, Cochrane, Embase, DARE, PROSPERO, CINAHL, JBISRIS, EPPI-Centre, Wiley Online Library and ScienceDirect database according to PRISMA guidelines. Data including mesh-fixation techniques and surgical approach were extracted from selected SRMAs. The corrected covered area was calculated to address study overlap across reviews, and an excess significance test was used to assess potential bias. The outcomes of interest were hernia recurrence, chronic groin pain, operating time, postoperative pain, duration of hospital stay, return to daily life activities, and postoperative complication.ResultsThirty SRMAs were included between 2010 and 2019: 16 focused on open repair, and 14 focused on laparoscopic repair, with a high degree of overlap (open repairs, 41 per cent; laparoscopic repairs, 30-57 per cent). Sufficient evidence was available on hernia recurrence, chronic groin pain, and operative time. Effects of glue on hernia recurrence were inconclusive in open and laparoscopy approaches, P = 0.816 and 0.946 respectively. Glue was significantly associated with lower persistent groin pain, in open repair (versus suture) and in laparoscopic repair (versus tack). SRMAs suggested that self-gripping mesh was associated with shorter operating time in open surgery, although with only a few minutes of improvement (0.36-7.85 min, P < 0.001).ConclusionIn this umbrella review, chronic groin pain and operating time were the only outcomes for which there was sufficient evidence supporting the effectiveness respectively of glue and self-gripping mesh.

Ultrasound-Guided Hook-Wire Localization for Surgical Excision of Non-Palpable Superficial Inguinal Lymph Nodes in Dogs: A Pilot Study.

Project description:The evaluation of loco-regional lymph nodes (LN) plays an important prognostic role and assists the clinical decision making in canine cancer patients. Excision of non-palpable LN can be challenging. The aim of the study was to evaluate surgical time, successful excision rate and surgical complications associated with the use of an ultrasound-guided hook-wire (UGHW) LN localization method for non-palpable superficial inguinal LN (SILN) in dogs. Dogs that presented for excision of non-palpable SILN, performed with the aid of an UGHW placement, were enrolled. Information including signalment, SILN width, UGHW placement and surgical procedure time, hook-wire position, successful excision and intra- and post-operative complications were reviewed. Seventeen dogs were enrolled. Median LN width was 3 mm (range 2-11). Median time of preoperative UGHW placement and surgical LN excision was 8 min and 15 min, respectively. Successful SILN excision was achieved in all cases. Two minor intra-operative (hook migration and wire fragmentation) and one minor post-operative complications (seroma) were observed. No major intraoperative or post-operative complications occurred. The UGHW LN localization method is safe and effective and may allow a high rate of successful SILN excisions in dogs. This method has the potential to facilitate LN excision for other superficial LN locations.
