Abstract

In congenital cryptorchidism, a recent Nordic Consensus report recommends surgical correction at 6-12 months of age to prevent male infertility. In published series of orchiopexies the median age at surgery is often 3 years or more. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether early surgery is technically safe.
