Undescended testicle (Cryptorchidism)
Specialty of Paediatric urology
An undescended testicle, medically known as cryptorchidism, where one (or both) of the testicles have not moved into position in the scrotum. The testicles usually descend into position prenatally, or shortly after birth, but in some cases they may not descend from within the abdomen. The condition, which is more common in premature babies, is corrected by a surgical procedure to move the testicle into the scrotum.
