The use of microsurgery in the treatment of the undescended testis.

An experimental method of orchidopexy for high inguinal or abdominal testes, in the dog, using microsurgical anastomosis of the testicular vessels to vessels of the thigh or inferior epigastric vessels, is described. Experimental results suggest that this is a feasible method of treatment of such testes. A clinical trial of the method has commenced.

Congenital granular-cell myoblastoma.

The clinical and pathologic features of congenital granular-cell myoblastoma in five infant girls are reported. One lesion, treated expectantly, progressively decreased in size and after 3 yr and 9 mo could not be detected, while two lesions which were imcompletely excised did not recur. It is suggested that congenital granular-cell myoblastoma is caused by an intrauterine stimulus, and that this stimulus may possible be production of estrogen by the fetus. Congential granular-cell myoblastoma should be treated expectantly or by limited excision, and has an excellent prognosis.
