Abstract

Laparoscopy is a well described modality that provides an accurate visual diagnosis upon which further management of intra-abdominal testes may be based. Laparoscopic ligation of spermatic vessels as stage 1 of the procedure is a natural extension of laparoscopy. A staged approach provides adequate viability of the intra-abdominal testis. However, it is uncertain whether the more sensitive germ cells survive this procedure in addition to the Sertoli and interstitial cells of the human testis. Survival of germ cells is a prerequisite of later fertility potential.
