Useful guide for parents: how to intervene in case of undescended testicle We
speak of
infantile
cryptorchidism when it is possible to notice that a testicle or both testicles is missing in the scrotal sac. The term cryptorchidism means, in fact, “hidden testicle”, although it would be better to say ” testicle not descended “.
The incidence of the phenomenon is 1-2 cases per 100 children, but there is an increase in cases among those born before the term. The diagnosis of cryptorchidism cannot be made before 3 months of life, as in this period of time the undescended testicle could naturally position itself in the correct place and move
this time limit is 6 months in the case of preterm infants.

Le cause piu frequenti del criptorchidismo
La formazione dei testicolioccurs in the abdominal area, near the kidneys. Only subsequently do they descend from the abdominal cavity to the scrotum via the inguinal canal. Among the recognized risk factors that can negatively affect this process are:

  • the premature
  • a low weight at birth
  • the familiarity
  • Down syndrome
  • cigarette smoke.

A variant of the undescended testicle is testicular ectopia, which occurs when the testicle migrates downwards and takes the wrong path by positioning itself outside
the scrotum (it can occur for example in the inguinal canal). How to diagnose the undescended testicle
The diagnosis of the undescended testicle can be made after 3 months of life by submitting the child to a specialist examination. Doctors can tell if cryptorchidism is mono or bilateral, while identifying the location where the testicle is located. A diagnostic test such as ultrasound and in more rare cases a nuclear magnetic resonance can be useful in making a correct diagnosis. Even if the testicle is not in the right position, it is possible that the child
is not affected by cryptorchidism but by what is known as the “retractable testicle”, a consequence of an accentuated contraction of the cremasteric muscle, which pulls it
up. How to intervene and avoid other consequences
In the case of infantile cryptorchidism , treatment is exclusively surgical. The operation must be carried out between 6 and 12 months of life.It is an operation to be performed as it has been shown that cryptorchidism is one of the ascertained causes of male infertility, probably due to the temperature difference between the abdomen and the scrotum. It is estimated a reduction in fertility of 70-80% in men with uncorrected bilateral cryptorchidism, the percentage drops to 40-50% when suffering from cryptorchidism and only one testicle.
The surgery is decided by the specialist doctor and is performed in day surgery within the first year of life when it is easier due to the reduced distance between the scrotum and the testicle site which has not descended.
