    Abstract:
    Two groups of each 50 children with maldescensus testis treated by two different techniques of orchiopexy are compared together. Two to five years after operation the localization and size of the testes are recorded. In the group of children with orchiopexy according to Cabot/Nesbit the failure rate was 12%, in contrast to only 6% failures and larger testes in the Petrivalsky/Shoemaker group. Therefore, the technique of Petrivalsky/Shoemaker is recommended, especially in small children.
