Patients were divided into three groups as intra-abdominal, inguinal canal and superficial inguinal region according to the location of the undescended testes. Patients were also grouped according to their testicular volume (&lt;4 cc, 4.1-12 cc, and &gt;12 cc). Histopathology results of orchiectomy specimens were classified as follows: 1. Sertoli cells only, testicular atrophy and vanished testis (anorchia) 2. Hypospermatogenesis, and 3. Maturation arrest. Patients were grouped as normospermia, azoospermia and oligo\/astheno\/teratospermia groups according to semen analysis results. Correlations between testicular localization, testicular size, semen analysis and pathology results were evaluated. Incidental tumor detection rates were also calculated.\n\n\t \n\n\tResults: Two hundred and forty-four adult unilateral cryptorchidism patients underwent orchiectomy in our clinic. There was no significant relationship between location of the testis and testicular pathology results (p=0.707). Most common semen analysis results was normospermia in patients with high testicular volume group however azoospermia and oligoasthenospermia observed commonly in patients with low testicular volume group. There was a significant relationship between testicular volume and semen analysis results (p=0.023). No significant relationship was observed between semen analysis and pathological results (p=0.929). After an evaluation of all factors with possible effects on the semen analysis results, only testicular volume (p=0.036) was found to have a significant impact. Only one case (0.4%) was incidentally diagnosed seminoma after a review of 233 patients with available histopathological results on record.\n\n\t \n\n\tConclusion: Adult unilateral cryptorchidism has a minimal effect on male fertility or even this effect can be overlooked. Low detection rates of incidental germ cell tumors also make an orchiectomy decision questionable in such cases.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.5152\/tud.2016.47886","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,5,4]],"date-time":"2016-05-04T10:44:39Z","timestamp":1462358679000},"page":"74-79","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Clinical and histopathological results of the adult patients with unilateral cryptorchidism"],"prefix":"10.5152","volume":"42","author":[{"given":"Ferhat","family":"Ate\u015f","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hasan","family":"Soydan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sezgin","family":"Ok\u00e7elik","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Abdullah","family":"\u00c7\u0131rako\u011flu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"\u0130smail","family":"Y\u0131lmaz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ercan","family":"Malko\u00e7","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kenan","family":"Karademir","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"3111","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,7,25]]},"container-title":["Urology Research and Practice"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/urologyresearchandpractice.org\/index.php\/pub\/article\/download\/2882\/2878","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,4]],"date-time":"2026-03-04T18:27:15Z","timestamp":1772648835000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/urologyresearchandpractice.org\/index.php\/pub\/article\/view\/2882"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2019,7,25]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,1,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.5152\/tud.2016.47886","relation":{},"ISSN":["2980-1478"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2980-1478","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2019,7,25]]}}}
