Scroto-peritoneal port for laparoscopic orchidopexy.
Recently, laparoscopic orchidopexy has been accepted as the standard procedure of management for clinically impalpable testes. However, many techniques have been described for the delivery of the mobilized testes. In this report, a new approach is described. The use of a fourth "scroto-peritoneal" port, makes complete laparoscopic orchidopexy possible, and in addition, is safe and easy to perform.
