What is Undescended Testis Surgery (Orchiopexy)?
Undescended testis is a condition where one or both testicles fail to move into the scrotum before birth. If left untreated, it may lead to fertility issues, hormonal imbalance, or an increased risk of testicular cancer later in life. Orchiopexy surgery is the standard treatment. It involves gently moving the testis into the scrotum and securing it in place. At Curis Life, we use laparoscopic techniques for kids or open surgery based on the case, ensuring safe and effective results.Symptoms
Parents should consult a pediatric surgeon if they notice:- Empty or underdeveloped scrotum on one or both sides
- Asymmetry between the two sides of the scrotum
- Pain or swelling in the groin (rare but possible)
- No testis felt during routine pediatric check-up.
Causes of Undescended Testis
The exact cause is not always clear, but common factors include:- Premature birth (higher risk in preterm babies)
- Hormonal imbalances during pregnancy
- Developmental issues with the testis or abdomen
- Family history of undescended testis
Diagnosis
Our team uses modern diagnostic methods to evaluate the condition:- Physical examination by an expert pediatric surgeon
- Ultrasound or imaging to locate the testis if not palpable
- Laparoscopy in rare cases where testis is hidden inside the abdomen
Treatment: Orchiopexy Procedure
The surgery is usually recommended after the child turns 6 months old and ideally before 18 months for best outcomes.- Minimally invasive pediatric surgery (laparoscopic orchiopexy): Small incisions, faster recovery, less pain.
- Open orchiopexy: For testis located in the groin, performed safely with precision.
