Detailed explanation-1: -An orchiopexy is a surgery that moves an undescended testicle into the scrotum. An orchiopexy also typically describes the surgery that resolved testicular torsion. The procedure usually takes less than an hour to complete.
Detailed explanation-2: -Orchidopexy (OR-kid-o-pex-ee) is a surgery to move a testicle that has not descended or moved down to its proper place in the scrotum. If a testicle has not completely descended by about 8 months of age, it is unlikely to ever descend on its own and an orchidopexy is needed.
Detailed explanation-3: -Orchiopexy (or orchidopexy) is a surgery to move and/or permanently fix a testicle into the scrotum. While orchiopexy typically describes the operation to surgically correct an undescended testicle, it is also used to resolve testicular torsion.
Detailed explanation-4: -Laparoscopic orchiopexy: All patients underwent general anesthesia in supine position with 30° elevated on the affected side. The first port for the laparoscope was placed in the umbilicus.
