Some parents went to the outpatient consultation. Since the baby is born, he can only touch one testis on the side, and the other side cannot be touched. Is it a child less testicular?
This situation is called Intimeter test.During the development of the embryo, it is a common pediatric urogenogen system disease due to some reason that the testicles do not fall into the scrotum or inside the groin.
The occurrence rate of the newborn period is about 1.8%, and a considerable part of the patients who have not dropped can naturally decrease within 1 year old, and there are very few chances of decline after 1 year old.
Teste is the only organ that produces sperm androgen. If the testicular of children cannot be dropped to the scrotum in time, it stays in a higher temperature abdominal cavity. Since the temperature in the scrotum generated by the sperm generated in the abdominal cavity is about 2 ° C, the testicles are about 2 ° C.Normal development will be affected, and it will even cause future infertility due to the degeneration of sperm cells and atrophy.There is no testicles in the scrotum to cause trauma and inferiority after children's adults.
The treatment of children under 1 year old can be treated with conservative treatment.If the treatment is unsuccessful, and the inguinal diagonal hernia or testicular is ectopic, surgery must be taken before the age of two.Generally speaking, the younger the age, the better the surgery.Feng Lilin, chief physician of Surgery, Qilu Children's Hospital of Shandong University
