We conducted a prospective comparison study with a large volume of cases to answer this question.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A total of 256 patients with palpable undescended testis who were admitted between January 1, 2017 and December 31, 2017 were included in this study. Among them, 124 patients underwent laparoscopic orchiopexy and 132 patients underwent open inguinal orchiopexy.

There were no significant differences between laparoscopic orchiopexy group and open orchiopexy group with respect to age, side, preoperative testicular position, and testicular volume. The final testicular position in laparoscopic group was better than that in open group (lower position rate: 89.3% versus 77.9%,\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u2009.01). There was no significant difference in success rate (laparoscopic group: 100%; and open group: 98.5%). There were 3 complications in the laparoscopic group and 6 complications in open group (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&gt;\u2009.05). No testicular atrophy was found in either group. No testicular ascent occurred in laparoscopic group while there were 2 cases in open group, which required additional surgery for correction.
