Orchiopexy

Posted on September 11, 2013 by plouiselle Posted in News

OrchiopexyOrchiopexy is a surgical procedure to move testicles from the abdomen or groin into the scrotum.  Before birth, the testicle moves from the pelvic area down into the scrotum.  In some boys, this does not occur and it is called undescended testicles.  This issue may require more than one operation depending on the position of the testes and any other associated problems.  An Orchiopexy is usually done in early childhood.  If undescended testicles are left too long, changes occur which can affect growth and function.

The physicians of Pediatric Surgical Associates perform this surgery more than any other pediatric surgical practice in the Midwest.  If you would like to inquire about the services provided through Pediatric Surgical Associates, please give our office a call at (612) 813-8000.
