Abstract:
About 10% of undescended testis are non palpable. Surgical exploration of the inguinal region was the standard treatment, mainly because reliable "localisation tests" were not available. Today, laparoscopy is becoming the first step for optimal management of this problem. This technique combines relevant diagnostic information with therapeutic facilitations.
