Yes, I did with my french Lop Billy had to have an operation to have them removed as they were still up in his tummy and would never have come down. I was told they can become cancerous if they are not removed.
Check it out with the vet and see what he says. Don't panic though as I'm sure it can sll be sorted easy enough.

Pippin had one undescended testicle at 5 months and our Vet suggested waiting one more month to see if it descended naturally. It didn't but she could feel that it was on its way down and was able to manipulate it down when neutering him. She said it was best not to leave it as they can turn cancerous. All went well with the op.
