Patient's question:
The baby's testicle has not descended, what should I do? The baby is over 2 years old, and one testicle has not descended. Should surgery be performed at this time?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it is likely cryptorchidism. Targeted examinations should be conducted, and treatment requires surgical intervention. It is recommended to complete the surgery between the ages of 2 and 6. This is because the temperature in the abdomen is higher than that in the scrotum, which is unfavorable for testicular growth and may increase the risk of cancer. It is advised to have the surgery as soon as possible after the age of 2.
