Despite the fact that cryptorchidism is a common congenital anomaly, our understanding of this problem is hampered by confusion and uncertainty regarding diagnosis and treatment. A major factor producing this confusion is the lack of a common terminology that describes to the reader (or listener) exactly what the author means by a given term. Herein is proposed a classification system that, if adopted and utilized, could ameliorate this problem.
尽管隐睾症是一种常见的先天性异常，但我们对这个问题的理解因诊断和治疗方面的混乱和不确定性而受到阻碍。造成这种混乱的一个主要因素是缺乏一个通用术语，无法向读者（或听众）准确描述作者使用特定术语时的含义。本文提出了一种分类系统，如果采用和使用该系统，可能会改善这个问题。
