Background Undescended testis (UDT) or cryptorchidism is a common pediatric surgical presentation. The accepted time for surgical correction (orchidopexy) is when the patient is aged from six months, and should ideally be completed before one year of age. In Saudi Arabia, the median age at the time of orchidopexy is 25 months, exceeding the recommended surgery time.

Objectives: Persistent Mullerian duct syndrome (PMDS) is a rare disorder of sexual differentiation resulting from aberrations in the Mullerian inhibiting factor (MIF) pathway, with consequent failure of regression of fetal Mullerian duct. The concomitant association of undescended testis increases the likelihood of developing testicular tumors in these patients. Due to its rarity, clinic-pathologic and treatment outcome data on testicular cancer in PMDS is sparse.

Department of Urology, Caddi Ayyad University of Marrakech, Ibn Sina Military Hospital, Marrakesh, MAR.
Abdominoscrotal hydrocele (ASH) is an uncommon congenital anomaly in which a scrotal hydrocele extends to the abdomen through the inguinal canal in an hourglass fashion. Coexisting undescended testes (UDT) have mainly been reported in pediatric populations and are mostly located along the inguinal canal. We present a 66-year-old male with a history of neglected left cryptorchidism, who presented with a progressive ipsilateral inguino-scrotal swelling suggesting indirect inguinal hernia.

The aim of this study was to describe the prevalence, clinical and therapeutic features of cryptorchidism at the Panzi General Hospital.
