An international multicenter cohort study of management and outcomes of undescended testis in German-speaking countries
In German-speaking countries, various techniques are used for orchidopexy with some changes in the daily practice over time. Late orchidopexy may be related to delayed referral or secondary ascent. Nevertheless, long-term outcomes for testis position, growth, and satisfaction remain favorable with a low complication rate.
