This activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the accreditation requirements and policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) through the joint providership of the American College of Surgeons and American Association for the Surgery of Trauma. The American College of Surgeons is accredited by the ACCME to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

1 on these propensity scores using nearest-neighbour matching within a propensity-score-based calliper. Uni-and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to evaluate predictors of complications.RESULTS: Overall, 2775 patients were included of whom 1554 (56%) underwent ICLO. After propensity score matching and multivariable analysis, ICLO was associated with a higher complication rate (odds ratio [OR], 1.51; 95% CI 1.1 to 2.1; P[.01), especially a higher rate of hematoma (OR, 2.9; 95% CI 1.3 Table 2: Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analysis for predictors of overall complications.CONCLUSIONS: Prophylactic contralateral testicular fixation was significantly associated with an increase in the postoperative complication rate, especially an increase in hematoma and delayed wound healing. Therefore, an immediate contralateral orchiopexy should not be performed systematically and can be safely omitted.

technique. From all 32 patients, treated by O'Donnell intervention satisfactory results were achieved in 23 (71.9%), unsatisfactory e in 9 (28.1%). In women, who underwent new modified transposition of distal urethra, satisfactory results were reached in 385 (93.4%) and relapses were in 11 (26.6%) patients (r<0.05).CONCLUSIONS: our technique of extravaginal urethral transposition compared with conventional operation enable to increase the reliability of urethra binding and decrease morbidity of intervention and risk of recurrence of disease.
