How to diagnose cryptorchidism quickly? The diagnosis of cryptorchidism is not difficult and can be detected early if you pay attention to it. Diagnosis method: First of all, see if the scrotum of the child is symmetrical. Asymmetrical scrotal development is one of the main manifestations of unilateral cryptorchidism, and if it is bilateral, the scrotum will be small, and secondly, if the testicles are not felt in the scrotum, it is very likely to be cryptorchidism. Although it does not mean that the testicles are not in the scrotum, parents should be alert and go to the hospital as early as possible. Surgery is best performed at the age of 1~2 years old Children have a chance to heal themselves within 6 months after birth, so they can be observed temporarily, but must be done with the knowledge of a physician. If the child does not heal within 6 months after birth, he has a chance of self-healing and treatment should be started, and treatment must begin at 10 months of age. Treatment is divided into non-surgical and surgical treatment. Non-surgical treatment mainly refers to hormonal treatment, the main role of which is to promote the transformation of germ cells and promote the descent of the testes (the lower the position of the testes, the better the treatment effect), because hormonal treatment has many side effects, it has been controversial and strictly limited in recent years. Surgery is the safest and most effective treatment method. Surgery should be performed around 2 years old, especially for bilateral cryptorchidism. The vast majority of children with cryptorchidism can be cured by one surgery, while a few high cryptorchidism needs 2 surgical treatments. With the application of laparoscopic technology, the number of children requiring 2 surgical procedures has decreased significantly. Laparoscopy is the best way to treat cryptorchidism in children Traditional cryptorchidism surgery involves making an incision in the groin or lower abdomen, finding the testicle in the inguinal region or in the abdominal cavity, and then pulling it to fix it in the scrotum. Open surgery is more traumatic, slow to recover and leaves scars on the skin. In recent years, minimally invasive laparoscopic treatment for pediatric cryptorchidism has been carried out, which only requires the creation of three small holes in the abdomen of the child and fixing the testicle in the scrotum under the direct view of high-definition laparoscope, with the advantages of less trauma and faster recovery.
