In 98 boys aged from 6 months to 12 years with the inguinal hernia was conducted the ultrasonic inspection of intratesticular blood flow before and on the 7th, 14th, 30th days and 6 months in postoperative period after laparoscopic and traditional surgical treatment. We used clinical significance of resistive index (RI) of the testicular artery measured by Doppler ultrasound as a predictor of testicular ischemia. During the monitoring of the RI we observed the highest positive dynamics in patients operated by laparoscopic method (PIRS). It was found that the resistance index in the junior, middle and senior by laparoscopic operated group (subgroup A) was significantly lower than in the group operated by traditional method.
