What is Undescended Testis?

An undescended testis is a condition in which the testicle remains in the abdomen or groin rather than descending into the scrotum. It usually affects newborn boys, especially those born prematurely. While some testes descend naturally within the first few months, others require surgical correction.

Why is Treatment Important?

If left untreated, undescended testis can lead to:

  • Reduced fertility in adulthood

  • Increased risk of testicular cancer

  • Hernia or testicular torsion

  • Psychological or cosmetic concerns

  • Impaired testicular function

Early diagnosis and management are key to preserving long-term testicular health.

Symptoms and Diagnosis

  • Empty or underdeveloped scrotum

  • Palpable mass in the groin (in some cases)

  • Asymmetry of the scrotum

Diagnosis involves:

  • Physical examination

  • Ultrasound or MRI (if testicle is not palpable)

  • Laparoscopy (in certain cases for localization)

Treatment: Orchiopexy Surgery in Ghaziabad

  • Ideal age for surgery: Between 6 to 12 months of age

  • Orchiopexy: A safe, minimally invasive procedure to move the testicle into the scrotum and secure it in place

  • Laparoscopic approach used if testicle is located inside the abdomen

The surgery is usually performed as a day-care procedure with quick recovery.
