| description | Early diagnosis of undescended testis (UDT) in patients under 2 years old plays a vital role in therapy success. However, in developing countries, UDT is often diagnosed in over 2 years.

Thus, the operator decided to do an orchiectomy. The operation was successful, and the patient was discharged the day after the surgery. |
