Testicle fetal abdomen to the inguinal ring and beyond to the inguinal canal and into the scrotum. In most cases (97% full-term, 70% preterm), both testes have descended by birth. In most other cases, only one testis fails to descend (cryptorchidism) and that will probably express itself within a year. The testes grow in response to the start of spermatogenesis. Size depends on lytic function, sperm production (amount of spermatogenesis present in testis), interstitial fluid, and Sertoli cell fluid production. After puberty, the volume of the testes can be increased by over 500% as compared to the pre-pubertal size. Testicles are
Orchiopexy opening(s) performs the procedure. The higher the testicle, the less successful the procedure. However, the procedure has a high success rate overall. RETRACTILE TESTES This is a kind in which testes are neither fully descended nor purely undescended but testicles are somewhat movable. Means sometimes testes is visible in scrotum and sometimes retract upwards. However this condition is not so dangerous as compared to testes in abdominal cavity but needs surgery/ orchiopexy if testes remain maximum time in abdomen and less in scrotum. Orchiopexy can also be performed to resolve a testicular torsion. If caught early enough and the blood
