Testicular Normogram of North India

Aims and Objective:To chart a normal testicular volume with standard deviation of north Indian male children for reference value. This study was done to prepare a tabulated data of testicular volume range. This will help in comparing the testicular volume of patients with undescended testes, ectopic testes, and other pathology of testes to rule out small or large testes. Materials and Methods:This was a hospital based cross-sectional prospective study conducted on 205 male child from 2016-2020 at our institution. Testicular volume was measured by ultrasonography by a single sonologist.Results:Average right and left testicular volume with standard deviation was 0.6161 ± 0.36159 ml and 0.6178 ± 0.35836 ml respectively. In this study mean testicular volume of both testes was found to be 0.4901 ml, 0.5648 ml, 0.6073 ml, 0.7946 ml, 0.8959 ml, 0.6900 ml, 0.9044 ml, 0.8055 ml, 0.5975 ml, 0.8511 ml for 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 years respectively.Conclusion:We prepared a testicular normogram of north Indian paediatric population in relation with their age and weight. We found that there is no significant difference between right and left testicular volume.
