An unusual case of triorchidism
نویسندگان
چکیده
Polyorchidism is an unusual abnormality of the genital tract in which supernumerary testes are present. To date there have been 178 reports (198 cases) of polyorchidism in the English literature. To our knowledge, only two cases of bilobed testis have been previously described in the paediatric literature. It may be presumed that a bilobed testis is an incomplete expression of triorchidism. Since there are insufficient data in the urological literature regarding the ideal management of bilobed testicles, we believe it is important to report this case to provide more information about this condition.
