Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
study group
The surgeon will estimate the size difference between the undescended and the normally located testis. Independently the ultrasonographer will measure the true size of both testes in the study group.
Control group
The same measurments will be done by the surgeon and the ultrasonographer on boys without cryptorchism.
