Abstract Objective:To evaluate the clinical application of color doppler ultrasound and CT in the diagnosis of cryptorchidism and its malignant transformation,to provide effective,economic and non-invasive way for qualitative diagnosis.Method:Forty-five patients with 51 cryptorchidism were examined by ultrasound and CT in recent years. Their imageological examinations were compared with surgical and pathological results respectively. Result:In 51 cryptorchidism ,45 cryptorchidism were detected by ultrasound,with the detection rate of 88.2%. Among those cases,4 of 5 malignant transformations were detected by ultrasound(detection rate 80.0%). In contrast,43 out of 51 cryptorchidism were detected by CT examination(detection rate 84.3%),of which 5 malignant cases were detected by CT with the accuracy rate of 100%. Among total 14 celiac cryptorchidism cases,11 cases(78.5%)were detected by ultrason examinations,while 13 cases(92.8%)were detected by CT scan. There was no significant difference between ultrasound and CT examination as for the detection rate in the diagnosis of cryptorchidism and its progression(P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared with CT,the color doppler ultrasound examination are high accuracy,easier to check,low-cost and non-invasive,therefore it is the preferred method in the diagnosis of cryptorchidism. However,in order to improve the diagnosis rate,ultrasound examination should be recommended to cooperate with CT for celiac cryptorchidism patients or patients with cryptorchidism malignant transformation.
