Abstract
Key Clinical Message:
An 18-year-old was presented with a large inflamed appendix (compressed by the instrument) and a spermatic cord with right undescended testicle (cryptorchidism). Patients who undergo orchiopexy after age 12 years, or no orchiopexy, are 2-6 times as likely to have testicular cancer as those who undergo prepubertal orchiopexy.
