EARLY DETECTION IS IMPORTANT FOR UNDESCENDED TESTICULAR DISEASE, WHICH IS COMMON IN INFANTS
Turkey Medicals member and hospital Pediatric Surgery Specialist Professor Doctor “Undescended testicle is a common type of disease in society. For this health problem that often occurs in infants, it is necessary to diagnose it early and start the treatment process. Babies whose treatment is disrupted may experience serious health problems in the future,” he said.
Pediatric Surgery Specialist Prof. Dr. made statements about the condition of undescended testicles, which is a common condition in infants, drew attention to importance of early diagnosis in relation to undescended testicular disease.

UNDESCENDED TESTICLE CAN CAUSE INFERTILITY AND CANCER FORMATION IN THE ADVANCED STAGES
Stating that serious health problems may occur in the future in infants who are not intervened by early diagnosis, Prof. Dr. “The testicle is an organ that secretes hormones that ensure development in male individuals, as well as performs sperm production,” said. With the development of the baby in the womb, the testicles located in the abdominal cavity descend into a bag called the scrotum after 6-7 months. In the process close to birth, the eggs descending towards the scrotum cross the area we call the inguinal canal and ensure their placement in the bag. We usually observe that babies have their testicles come down within 6 months of being born. In infants with undescended testicles, it is extremely important that the diagnosis is made in no time and treatment is started.
In this disorder, which occurs in 1 out of every 100 babies, it is generally observed that the testicle does not descend on one side. In this disease, which is known to increase the risk of infertility and cancer formation in advanced stages, this serious problems can be prevented thanks to treatment quickly and early,” was explained.
Another type of undescended testicle, ectopic testicle, which also provides information about Prof. Dr. “The fact that any of the testicles is located in a different area outside the normal landing path is called an ectopic testicle,” said. An ectopic testicle can be located under the skin, in the anterior part of the anus, on the front side of the abdomen, or at the bottom of the penis,” he said.

UNDESCENDED TESTICLES CAN BE DETECTED BY PHYSICAL EXAMINATION AFTER CHILDBIRTH
Noting the importance of early diagnosis in undescended testicular complaint, Prof. Doctor “Undescended testicles can be detected as a result of careful physical examination immediately after the moment the baby is born, “Later, during the control examinations, it can be observed whether there is an improvement thanks to the evaluation of the testicles,” he said.
