Concealed Laparoscopic Orchiopexy
is a corrective procedure for a non-palpable testis that occurs
in 2.5% of newborn males in the United States. A laparoscope
is inserted through a tiny umbilical opening to locate the
non-palpable testis. If the testis is healthy, a second instrument
is placed through a small opening in the scrotum to move the
testicle into it's natural position. This technique avoids
a more invasive, visible incision in the groin and most patients
go home the same day.
