What is another word for undescended?
Pronunciation: [ˌʌndɪsˈɛndɪd] (IPA) 
Undescended refers to a condition where a testicle, ovary, or other organ fails to move down from the abdominal cavity into its rightful position. There are different synonyms for this term, depending on the context in which it is used. For example, in urology, cryptorchidism is used to describe undescended testicles, whereas in gynecology, the term ovarian dysgenesis is more appropriate.
