Single-site laparoscopy enables orchiopexy for nonpalpable testes in children. This minimally invasive technique offers excellent surgical and cosmetic outcomes with minimal blood loss.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Urology

Background:

  • Undescended testes, or cryptorchidism, affect a significant number of pediatric patients.
  • Nonpalpable testes require diagnostic laparoscopy to determine intraabdominal location.
  • Orchiopexy is the surgical procedure to correct undescended testes.

Observation:

  • A 2-year-old boy presented with a nonpalpable right testis.
  • Diagnostic laparoscopy identified an intraabdominal right testis.
  • A single 5-mm port site was extended to accommodate a triport for the procedure.

Findings:

  • Laparoendoscopic single-site orchiopexy was successfully performed.
  • The operative time was 55 minutes with minimal blood loss.

  • Excellent surgical and cosmetic results were achieved with no complications.

    • Implications:

    • Laparoendoscopic single-site surgery is a viable and effective approach for pediatric orchiopexy.
    • This technique offers a minimally invasive option for treating nonpalpable testes.
    • Further adoption of single-site laparoscopy may improve patient outcomes and cosmesis in pediatric urological procedures.
