one or both testicles to descend into the dog&#8217;s scrotal sac<\/h3>\n<p>Unfortunately, the problem is not solely cosmetic.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, the retained testicle may go into twisting and has a high chance of turning into a malignant neoplasm i.e., tumor.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"quali-sono-le-cause-del-criptorchidismo\"><strong>What are the causes of cryptorchidism?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The causes of cryptorchidism in dogs are essentially genetic, and it is a fairly common abnormality.<\/p>\n<p>The probability for a puppy to suffer from cryptorchidism, is four times higher if either father or sibling suffers from it.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, because it is a hereditary disease, it is preferable that cryptorchid dogs do not breed.<\/p>\n<p>An estimated 150 out of 1000 male dogs suffer from it, and the most affected are small dogs.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"esistono-razze-predisposte\"><strong>Are there predisposed breeds?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Statistically there are breeds more prone<strong> <\/strong>to develop this anomaly.<\/p>\n<p>In particular, Yorkies, Dachshunds, Poodles, Boxers, Maltese, Schnauzers, and Pekingese<strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4 id=\"qual-e-il-normale-processo-di-formazione-e-abbassamento-dei-testicoli-nei-cani-maschi\"><strong>What is the normal process of testicular formation and lowering in male dogs?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The<strong> <\/strong>formation and lowering of testicles in male puppies of dogs starts from gestation<strong>. <\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>At an early stage, the testes are located in the lower abdominal region where they remain until birth.<\/p>\n<p>About 10 days after the pup is born, the testicles descend to the inguinal canal.<\/p>\n<p>When the pup turns 15 days old, the testes reach their final destination that is the scrotal sac.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"questo-processo-non-e-affatto-sempre-scontato\"><strong>This process is unfortunately by no means always a given<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>In some individuals it can take up to 12 weeks to complete or even longer.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, the veterinarian waits until six months of age to issue a definitive and confident diagnosis and to determine, above all, what type of cryptorchidism it is.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"esistono-diversi-tipi-di-criptorchidismo\"><strong>There are different types of cryptorchidism  <\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>We can identify four types:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Unilateral<\/strong>: when only one of the testicles has reached the correct position, inside the scrotum<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bilateral<\/strong>: neither testicle has reached the scrotal sac<\/li>\n<li><strong>Inguinal<\/strong>: if the testicles cannot pass the inguinal canal, located on either side of the penis<\/li>\n<li><strong>Abdominal<\/strong>: the testicles have not left the area where they were formed<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Whatever type of cryptorchidism the puppy has, it is most likely to manifest severe and dangerous symptoms in adulthood.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"quali-sono-le-conseguenze-per-i-cani-affetti-da-criptorchidismo\"><strong>What are the consequences for dogs with cryptorchidism?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>With advancing age, dogs can go through<strong> <\/strong>cancerous forms due mainly to the abnormal temperature to which the testicles within the abdominal cavity are subjected.<\/p>\n<p>When there is a tumor, changes are evident both physically and in the affected dog&#8217;s behavior:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>Dramatic decrease in penis size<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Development of mammary glands, as if they were pregnant females<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Feminization syndrome (dog behaves like a female, for example, when urinating)<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In addition, the wrong position of the testicle can cause an acute abdomen syndrome<strong> <\/strong>to be operated on urgently as it can twist on itself and create very high pain.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, it is very important in the case of cryptorchid dogs or cats to intervene as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"come-interviene-il-veterinario\"><strong>How does the veterinarian intervene?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Therapy<strong> <\/strong>is exclusively surgical<strong> <\/strong>and consists of removal of both testicles as repositioning of the retained one is usually not feasible.<\/p>\n<p>Testicular removal can be performed by the minimally invasive technique of laparoscopy.<\/p>\n<p>Laparoscopy is a highly specialized surgical method that allows for a very short postoperative course precisely because of the minimal size of the wounds that are made during surgery.<\/p>\n<p><strong>We also remind you that in case of need and urgency<a
