I could swear I responded to this last night. Hmm.

Statistically, men with undescended or patially descended testicles have a slightly higher incidence of testicular cancer. There is question whether or not the one testicle would fertile - producing sperm.

There is not a huge need for concern but he should be getting ti checked at his annual physical. It should still be correctable but may never produce sperm. If parentage is a ever an issue, a sperm count would be a good idea before trying to get pregnant. If such a new patient showed up in my surgery, a sperm count would be high on my list of tests.
