Testicular position abnormalities account for up to 5% of all malformations in mature newborns, and up to 30% in prematurity, causing spermatogenic and hormonal dysfunction, leading to infertility in 60% of men with unilateral, and 80% to 100% in bilateral forms of cryptorchidism. A retrospective analysis of 987 operated on patients with cryptorchidism from 2016 to 2021 was carried out. The prevailing age composition of operated patients of senior preschool and primary school age from 4 to 7 years - 44.3% and children from 1 to 3 years - 34.1% older than 4 years indicates insufficient educational and outpatient diagnostic work at the level of primary health care. In 12.5% of patients with cryptorchidism have been found to have concomitant congenital malformations. To prevent male infertility and improve the early diagnosis of cryptorchidism, further research and improvement of primary health care with the active implementation of in-depth preventive examinations among the child population in polyclinics using modern research methods is necessary.
