Patient's question:
Is there a cure for cryptorchidism? What kind of disease is it, what are its dangers, and will it affect a person's height? What other diseases can it cause... Where should I go for treatment? Which hospital is better? How is pediatric cryptorchidism treated?Doctor's answer:
Once diagnosed with cryptorchidism, surgery can be performed within 6 months. For those who do not respond to hormone treatment and are over 1 year old, surgery should be performed as soon as possible, no later than 2 years. Surgical methods include open surgery and laparoscopic surgery. Laparoscopic surgery has significant advantages in the diagnosis and treatment of high cryptorchidism. Other surgical methods include male autologous testicular transplantation. If atrophy or degeneration of the testicle is found, it must be removed.
