Abstract：
:Delayed diagnosis of undescended testes is a major problem. A retrospective review of 298 testes units was performed to assess the age at referral, age at operation, complications and final outcome. The mean age at referral was 57 months. Only 24% of cases were operated below 2 years. A similar pattern of delayed orchidopexy has been reported by many other centres. As orchidopexy is recommended soon after 6-7 months of age, there is an urgent need for increased awareness of undescended testes and its consequences at all levels of child health care.
