Before and after testicular repair
From DrKoop's partner site on erectile dysfunction, ErectileDysfunctionConnection.com
During the last months of normal fetal development, the testicles develop in the abdomen and descend into the scrotum. Sometimes at birth, one or both testicles may fail to descend into the scrotum. If the testicle has not descended within the first year of the baby's life, surgery may be recommended to return the testicle to its proper position in the scrotum.
