Cryptorchidism
• The testes develop in the
abdominal cavity in early
fetal life. By 14 to 17
weeks of intrauterine life

opening in the body wall
known as the inguinal
canal. After 28 weeks
they pass through the
canal and by 35 to 40
weeks reach the scrotum.

are fairly common in
premature infants. They
occur in about 3 - 4% of
full-term infants. In
most cases the testicles
descend by the time the
child is 9 months old.
