Clinical Aspect and Outcome of UDT

Clinical IssuesDefinitions & epidemiologyNormal testicular development and descentCauses of cryptorchidismConsequencesAzospermiaIncreased risk for neoplasiaTreatmentMedical/hormonalSurgical
-
EpidemiologyMost common male developmental abnormalitiesFrequency 3.4 % in term boysBy 1 yr, incidence 0.8% (spontaneous descent in 75% term dan 90% preterm)Most spontaneous descent happen first 3 months (testosterone post natal surge)Spontaneous descent rare > 6 months old
-
Incidence of UDT in RSCM Batubara, et al 1994-1995Untreated bilateral UDT 89% develop azospermiaLifetime risk of neoplasia 2-3%4 fold higher than average risk
Epidemiology
-
DefinitionCryptorchidism = Undescended testis (Greek, kryptos=hidden, orchis=testicle) Definition: testis which has been arrested anywhere along its normal pathway of descent. No racial or geographic predispositioncan be associated with congenital, chromosomal, or intersex disorders.
-
Clinical presentationPalpableNonpalpableUnilateralBilateralhCG testWith / without other genital abnormality61% of referred cases proven cryptorchidism (Giannopoulos et al, 2001)
-
DefinitionsEctopic: aberrant course
Retractile (39%): can be manipulated into scrotum where it remains without tension (most common misdiagnosis)
Gliding (12-18%): can be manipulated into upper scrotum but immediately retracts when released
-
Ectopic testisAberrant coursebase of the penis, superficial inguinal pouch, (most common) medial aspect of the upper thigh, contralateral scrotal sacperinealHormonal therapy useless
-
Retractile testesHormone production and fertility are normal no increased risk for malignancy. A hyperactive cremasteric muscle reflex, which lessens with time, is the suspected cause of the retraction. Most retractile testes remain in the scrotum permanently by the onset of puberty.
-
Retractile testesNormal fertility and no increased risk for malignancy. hyperactive cremasteric muscle reflexSpontaneous descent no interventionMost permanent in scrotum at onset of pubertyGiannopoulos et al (2001)Follow up every 6 months6% ascend needs hormonal therapy
-
Physical ExaminationThe patient should be comfortable supine with his legs elevated (the frog leg position). full genital examination penile abnormalities, such as hypospadias. scrotum (size and development)
-
Physical ExaminationTestes examinationIf palpable manipulate into scrotal "milking" (pressing down just above the inguinal canal and gliding a lubricated hand toward the scrotum)Cremasteric reflex: Stroking the inner thigh elevation of > 0.5 cm of the ipsilateral testicle
-
Physical ExaminationIf testis can be brought all the way into scrotum, it is retractile check annually If ectopic record the location for future treatment. UDT: testes not ectopic or retractile
-
Physical ExaminationIf the testis is not palpable in the supine positioncross-legged (tailor) or squatting position relaxation of the cremasteric reflex Warm compresses of the inguinal region

Spontaneous testicular descent (Wenzler et al, 2004)10-year experience (1990-2000) of treating infants with cryptorchidism N= 1,235 patients with cryptorchidism; 278 presented before age 12 months.
-
CONCLUSIONS: spontaneous testicular descent is uncommon in infants with cryptorchidism is rare beyond age 6 months (spontaneous descent in 75% term dan 90% preterm)Most spontaneous descent happen first 3 months (testosterone post natal surge)Spontaneous descent rare > 6 months oldSpontaneous testicular descent (Wenzler et al, 2004)

Causes (Giannopoulos, 2001)

Gonadotropins profiles Insufficient T response to hCG in 36.5% (Forest,1979)Blunting of LH and FSH surge at 3 months (Gendrel,1980)Leydig cell hypoplasia (Hadziselimovic, 1986)May indicate deficiency of HP-gonadal axis as a cause of defective meiosis

When to treat?Hamza 2001As spontaneous testicular descent closely related to postnatal LH and T surges,In term boys, 4 moIn premies, 6 moPotential concerns premature epiphyseal plate fusion Induce secondary sexual characteristics
-
TreatmentsHormonalhCGGnRHhMGCombined (hCG & GnRH)Surgical
-
Hormonal TherapyhCG supplementation Leydig's cells testosterone production promotes testicular descent.
Dosage: The International Health Foundation250 IU for young infants, 500 IU for children up to 6 years of age,1000 IU for patients older than 6 years. The injections are given biweekly for 5 weeks.
Potential concerns about premature epiphyseal plate fusion.

Response of UDT to LH-RH followed by HCG related to clinical positionsGiannopoulos 2001
-
Long term outcomes5/11 randomized GnRH trials24% (13-35%) ascended/relapsedConclusions:GnRH more effective than placebohCG seems effective, but not as much data
-
Comparison of hormonal treatment (Esposito et al,2003)Success rateOverall success in 27.7% (38.2% in UDT bilateral; 23.8% in UDT unilateral; p=0.007)
-
When to operate?Age 6 12 monthsFailure of hormonal therapyLocationCoincide with herniaEctopicBy 18 months of age in infants with an undescended testis, light microscopy reveals a diminished number of germ cells, diminished seminiferous tubular size, peritubular hyalinization, and fibrosis orchidopexy is generally recommended when the child is 12 to 18 months of age.

Conclusion UDT = non retractile or non ectopic testisSpontaneous descent rare > 6 months old check testis position at 6 months old regularlyUDT: Hormonal intervention at 6 monthsSurgical at 1 year regular examsRetractile: follow up every 6 months 6% ascent
