The authors report their experience on treatment or cryptorchidism with synthetic LHRH intranasally sprayed in a selected group of prepubertal boys (58 cases with 75 undescended testes). The success rate of the present study, in the patients with pretreatment testicular position at or below the external annulus, was 36% (24/66 testes). Indications for hormonal therapy are related to the position of the testis before treatment.
