Summary:Cryptorchidism is a congenital anomaly of the testicles that has a hereditary character, with great importance among the diseases that affect reproduction in canine species. The aim of the present study was to report a case of bilateral cryptorchidism in a three-year-old, mixed breed dog, treated at the Veterinary School Clinic Prof. Dr. Marcos Vinicius Tranquilim from the State University of the Midwest. After diagnostic confirmation of the location of the intra-abdominal testicles by means of ultrasonography, median retro-umbilical (pre-pubic) celiotomy was performed and orchiectomy was accomplished. The animal had a good recovery from the surgical procedure, with the removal of the stitches ten days after the surgery, which shows the effectiveness of the treatment used in this case. O Criptorquidismo é uma anomalia congênita de testículos que possui caráter hereditário, apresentando grande importância entre as doenças que afetam a reprodução na espécie canina. O presente trabalho teve por objetivo relatar um caso de Criptorquidismo bilateral em cão, sem raça definida, com três anos de idade, atendido na Clínica Escola Veterinária Prof. Dr. Marcos Vinicius Tranquilim da Universidade Estadual do Centro-Oeste. Após confirmação diagnóstica da localização dos testículos intra-abdominal, por meio de ultrassonografia, realizou-se a celiotomia mediana retro-umbilical (pré-púbica) e procedeu-se a orquiectomia. O animal apresentou boa recuperação do procedimento cirúrgico, com a retirada dos pontos dez dias após a cirurgia, o que evidencia a eficácia do tratamento empregado nesse caso.
