ObjectivesWe测量了单侧隐睾患者术前睾丸体积，并与单侧鞘膜积液睾丸，以评估这些patients.Patients和methodsThe本研究包括129名儿童（年龄从10个月到5岁不等）与单侧隐睾谁是从2000年至2006年在我们的机构治疗睾丸发育。我们评估了睾丸体积与睾丸位置或这些儿童年龄之间的相关性。我们还检查了50例单侧睾丸鞘膜积液的儿童（范围，8个月至5岁）的睾丸体积。隐睾和鞘膜积液睾丸的体积直到5岁才发生变化。隐睾与鞘膜积液睾丸体积有显著差异。2岁以下和2岁以上隐睾患儿睾丸体积均明显小于鞘膜积液患儿。结论从隐睾体积的角度考虑，隐睾患儿应尽早手术治疗。
ObjectivesWe measured the testis volume of patients with unilateral cryptorchidism preoperatively and compared with a unilateral hydrocele testis to assess testicular development in these patients.Patients and methodsThe present study included 129 children (ranging in age from 10 months to 5 years) with unilateral cryptorchidism who were treated from 2000 to 2006 at our institution. We evaluated the correlation between testicular volume and the location of testes or the age of these children. We also examined the testicular volume of 50 children with unilateral hydrocele testis (range, 8 months to 5 years).ResultsThere was no difference in testicular volume among each position of the undescended testis. The volumes of both undescended testes and hydrocele testes did not change until 5 years of age. There was a significant difference in testicular volume between undescended and hydrocele testes. The average testicular volume of cryptorchidism is significantly smaller than that of hydrocele testes both under and over 2 years old.ConclusionsFrom the viewpoint of undescended testicular volume, cryptorchid children should be operated on as early as possible.
