Patient's question:
Premature baby with a testicle in the abdominal cavity?Doctor's answer:
Premature children are prone to experiencing undescended testicles. If a testicle remains in the abdomen, it is related to cryptorchidism. If it cannot descend normally into the scrotum, surgical treatment can be considered when the child is 28 weeks old. This can resolve the issue of undescended testicles. It should not be delayed, as it may affect the development of the reproductive system during the child's future puberty. Wishing you good health.
