ABSTRACT
Because of its usually abnormal mesorchial attachments the undescended testis is more prone to undergo torsion than normally-sited organ, but the incidence of this complication appears to have lessened in recent years. We present two cases with torsion of the unilateral cryptorchid testis and a review of the literature. Two cryptorchids complained of the painful mass on the inguinal area. Exploration revealed testicular torsion and orchiectomy was done.
