TRANSVERSE TESTICULAR ECTOPIA WITH PERSISTENT MULLERIAN DUCT SYNDROME A RARE CASE REPORT

PRAKASH KUMAR J

Abstract


Transverse Testicular Ectopia (TTE) is an extremely rare congenital anomaly where in both the testes lie in the same scrotum. It is mostly associated with inguinal hernia. The current literature reports around 100 cases of TTE out of which 20-49 had remnants of the Mullerian duct. Careful management of such a case is required to safeguard the fertility of patients. Hence, I describe a 2 year old male child who was admitted for inguinal hernia and presence of both the testes on the same side. On exploration, found to have mullerian duct remnants too which is a very rare entity.
