[Telethermography in the examination of children following orchiopexy].
From the results of examination of 60 healthy boys the authors suggest a thermographic characteristics of the scrotum in different age groups. It is shown with high authenticity that the temperature of the scrotum reduces with age. Besides, there is an authentic increase of temperature of the scrotum on the left side in children aged from 11 to 14 years. Examination of 317 boys who underwent operation for cryptorchidism showed the temperature to be increased by 0.6-0.8 degree C in the early and by 0.1-0.4 degree C in the late-term postoperative period. Distant thermography was found to be highly informative in studying the scrotal temperature regimen in healthy children and in those with cryptorchidism in the postoperative period.
