 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 4 Color Doppler ultrasound diagnosis of the clinical value of cryptorchidism in children Cryptorchidism also known as undescended testes. Embryonic testes gradually down, 1 year old who is called undescended testes. Are summed up in our hospital from 2002 to 2009 by ultrasonography in children after surgical treatment of 68 cases, to investigate the color Doppler ultrasound Check the clinical value of cryptorchidism in children. 1 Materials and Methods 68 cases of children with the youngest 2 years old, maximum 14 years, of which 5 cases of bilateral cryptorchidism, 63 cases of unilateral cryptorchidism. Instrumentation Siemens ACUSON Sequoia-512 color Doppler ultrasound. Children supine position, legs apart and outside, and the first Ministry of the scrotum with high frequency probe exploration, check whether the testicle within the scrotum, and then in the absence of testicular side of the groin exploration, testicular echo if not found, you can switch to low-frequency probe, along the external iliac vessels to the kidney exploration near the door. cryptorchidism echo ultrasound after that, locate and record the size, shape and internal echoes. 2 Results 68 cases, 63 cases of testicular echo detected by ultrasound, of which, 59 cases in the groin, retroperitoneal in 4 cases, ultrasound echo not found 5 cases of testicular structure, were found after surgery in retroperitoneal. 3 Discussion Cryptorchidism more common in children and adolescents, accounting for 4% of neonatal cryptorchidism, most of the natural decline in a few weeks, puberty is not a decrease, no longer generally falls. Cryptorchidism 60% -70% in the inguinal canal , about 25% in the retroperitoneum, the top 5% in the scrotum or other rare parts, a very rare congenital absence of testicular abnormalities. cryptorchidism prone to cancer, testicular cancer, according to statistics in the 8% -15% occurred in cryptorchidism, therefo
