Novel technique Circumcision Incision Orchidopexy

The novel technique starts with retraction of the prepucial skin off the glans penis and double incision circumcision done with mucosal sparing, then degloving of the penis on the side of the undescended testis. Dissection via Dartos' layer into the inguinal area until the palpable testicle was identified and extracted with mobilization of the spermatic cord. Hernia sac was then separated and suture ligated as high as the area of internal ring opening. Spematic cord lengthening was done until adequate length achieved for fixation into the inferior aspect of the scrotum. Then development of the Dartos' pouch via the circumcision site was done. A double or single suture testicular fixation using Vicryl 3-0 simple interrupted sutures on the everted Dartos' pouch inner surface was done. Subsequent placement of the testicle into the Dartos' pouch was done as the inner surface was inverted. The last step was the completion of the circumcision closure using Chromic 4-0 interrupted sutures.
