Treatment With a Luteinizing Hormone-Releasing Hormone Analogue after Successful Orchiopexy Markedly Improves the Change of Fertility Later in Life

Abstract

The luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone analogue buserelin, administered as a nasal spray every other day for 6 months following successful orchiopexy, appears to have a long lasting, positive effect on germ cells. Consequently, the prognosis of fertility has been greatly enhanced in patients treated with buserelin.
