title: Orchiopexy of the high undescended testis by division of the spermatic vessels: a critical review of 38 selected transections.
abstract: The technique used to perform 38 orchiopexies of high undescended testes by spermatic vessel transection in 26 patients is reviewed. Careful attention to detail and selection using the Fowler-Stephens test allowed for an 89 per cent success rate, confirming the efficacy of this procedure in cases selected in this manner.
