Suggest Treatment Options For Children With Undescended Testicles

My grandson aged 11 months had a scan today to determine where or if he had testicles. The scan could not identify that he had any testicles, but they did find that he had what seemed to be only one kidney - horse shoe shaped. What does having no testicles mean for him in the future?

Hi,

I have gone through your question and I understand your concerns but unfortunately, if the tests were not indemnified and put back into the scrotum before the age of one year this means that he will be sterile or infertile.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Salah Saad Shoman,
