Il trattamento post-operatorio per criptorchidismo con HCG estrattivo ha mostrato un aumento volumetrico del testicolo rispetto ai soggetti che non hanno eseguito il trattamento. Lo stimolo  a livello parenchimale (interstizio, cellule del Leydig e Sertoli) e a livello del gumernaculum, favorirebbe un effetto angiogenetico
Lo studio vuole dimostrare il meccanismo cellulare
