Abstract

Laparoscopy is the latest advancement in the evaluation of non-palpable testis. We came across total 41 patients with 52 undescended testis in 2 years. Nineteen out of these patients with 25 undescended testis (six of them had bilateral undescended testis) were subjected to laparoscopic examination, as there testis were impalpable. En 80 % of cases, laparoscopy was helpful to locate the testis. In 20% (5/25) of cases laparoscopy helped in avoiding an unnecessary groin exploration. In this paper our experience with laparoscopic examination in impalpable undescended testis is presented.
