Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that your husband has bilateral Chryptorchism..which has failed to descend down even after surgery twice.
You have not mentioned the present location of testicles whether they are in inguinal canal or higher up in scrotum.
Please get his ultrasound scanning of abdomen done to locate the testicles ..
Please note that testicles in abnormal position are prone to under go malignant changes (Cancer) 50 % more than normal positioned testis.
Please consult qualified general surgeon for evaluation and further treatment.
