Muaz was an 11-year-old boy. About a year ago, Muaz's mom noticed that his right scrotum didn't have testes, and he complained of stomach pain. After the assessment and examination, he was diagnosed with Right Undescended Testes. He was admitted to the hospital on the 9th of February 2024 for the surgery. Surgery was performed on the same day with no complications, and he was discharged on the 10th of February 2024. The swelling was no longer present, and the child felt much better. He left the hospital in the company of his parents who were thankful to Helpster Charity.

The condition can lead to complications such as infertility, testicular cancer, and inguinal hernia in the future. Treatment for undescended testis usually involves a surgical procedure called orchiopexy. In this operation, a surgeon moves the testicle from its abnormal position in the abdomen or groin into the scrotum. This promotes normal testicular development and function. Early treatment is crucial to prevent long-term complications.
