Evaluation and Management of the Undescended Testis in Puerto Rico: A Single Surgeon's 10 Years of Experience.

Objective: Cryptorchidism is an abnormality of the male genitourinary tract in which one or both testes fail to descend into the scrotum. The American Urological Association (AUA) clinical guidelines for the evaluation and treatment of cryptorchidism were recently published. We reviewed our experience with the evaluation and management of our patients and examined our findings with respect to the AUA and European Association of Urology (EAU) guidelines.

The current literature describes the use of LESS for most surgeries performed in the pediatric urology population with similar results to open and standard laparoscopic surgery.
