Cryptorchidism and hernia belong to two completely different diseases clinically, with obvious differences. Cryptorchidism generally refers to congenital incomplete descent of the testicles, in which the testicles are easily blocked during descent, resulting in incomplete entry into the scrotum, thus causing cryptorchidism, which is generally more common in infants and young children. Hernias are usually caused by a weak abdominal wall, which often causes the abdominal contents to protrude, leading to the formation of a hernia. Cryptorchidism and hernias are related, as children with cryptorchidism usually have incomplete closure of the hilum, which can lead to weakness of the abdominal wall, thus combining with the formation of hernias. Cryptorchidism combined with hernias is very common in clinics, and usually needs to be treated through surgical methods. Hernia alone is usually common in the elderly, so there is a clear difference.
