29
covers the testis and the spermatic cord and raises and lowers the testes to control temperature
Cremaster muscle
30
accumulation of fluids around the testis, often caused by a remnant piece of peritoneum wrapped around the testis, known as the tunica vaginalis. can develop in adults, usually from impaired absorption

a surgery to move an undescended testicle into the scrotum and permanently suture it into place. it also is performed to resolve testicular torsion

cord-like structure that starts at the deep inguinal ring and passes through the inguinal canal and exits at the superficial inguinal ring into the scrotum. it contains the vas deferens, arteries, nerves, and lymphatics
