摘要: Purpose: Current indications for orchiopexy are to decrease the risk of infertility and facilitate testicular self-examination. Although increased germ cell cancer in cryptorchid testes is undisputed, it unclear whether affects natural history testis development. We hypothesize that early protective against subsequent development cancer.Materials Methods: conducted a systematic review meta-analysis literature. Studies pertaining cryptorchidism were retrieved by searching MEDLINE, BIOSIS Cochrane Library, using as keyword, combined with treatment, orchiopexy, cancer. For data extraction exposure was dichotomized before or after age 10 11 years, while outcome defined Summary measures calculated random effects model.Results: Four studies met our criteria. ...
