Transverse Testicular Ectopia With Fused Vas Deferens: An Extremely Rare Entity
نویسندگان
چکیده
Transverse testicular ectopia (TTE) is a rare entity. TTE associated with fused vas deferens is extremely rare. We present a case of transverse testicular ectopia of the right testis with fused vas deferens that presented to our out-patient department with left inguinal hernia. To our knowledge, a fused vas deferens has only been reported seven other times in published report. Clinical examination revealed glandular hypospadias, empty right hemiscrotum, left sided normally descended testis and another structure with testicular feel palpable at left superficial inguinal ring. Left inguinal herniotomy and trans-septal orchidopexy of right testis was done.
