Summary

This study looked at 60 boys with an undescended testicle that could be felt in the groin. Half had standard surgery where a small sac is tied off, and half had surgery without that step. The goal was to see if skipping the sac tie made the operation faster or changed the chance of later problems like hernia or infection. Results help doctors choose the safest, simplest approach.
