[The place of the screening method in the early discovery and treatment of cryptorchism].
According to modern concepts, only early operative treatment of cryptorchidism may guarantee good results. This has been proven by the results obtained by the authors, who for five years have on mass prophylactic examination (1984-1988) searched for cryptorchidism in children attending kindergartens in the town of Tolbukhin. In this way the authors succeeded in realising highest operative activity in the age from 3 to 4 years.
