Associated anomalies in undescended testes

Abstract: Several chromosomal and nonchromosomal syndromes are associated with cryptorchidism. Primary dysgenetic hypogonadism probably is the major cause of cryptorchidism in these syndromes. Systematic microscopic investigations of testicular tissue are not available. A higher than normal incidence of urinary tract malformations in boys with cryptorchidism has been reported, but there is no agreement in the literature on whether all patients with cryptorchidism should be screened for abnormalities of the urinary tract… Show more

“…A incidência de criptorquia está nitidamente aumentada nas síndromes com deficiência gonadotrófica como Kallmann, Prader-LabhartWilli e também em muitas síndromes cromossômicas ou não, onde hipogonadismo primário disgenético provavelmente responde pela não descida testicular. 9,14 Pacientes com lesões do tubo neural e anencéfalos são frequentemente criptorquídicos. 9 Um grande número de trabalhos mostra uma deficiência de LH basal e após estímulo com LHRH, bem como da T basal e após HCG, nas crianças com criptorquia.…”
