The term ‘ectopic testis’ (ET) denotes the testis that the testis has settled outside its normal course of descent. The most frequent ectopic site is the superficial inguinal pouch.

description | The term ‘ectopic testis’ (ET) denotes the testis that the testis has settled outside its normal course of descent. The most frequent ectopic site is the superficial inguinal pouch. Other sites include the perineum, femoral canal, contralateral hemiscrotum and anterior abdominal wall. The inguinal approach or laparoscopy-assisted orchiopexy is used in the majority of patients. Transseptal or extra-peritoneal transposition is occasionally taken up for crossed testicular ectopia. We report successful surgical techniques for treating crossed testicular ectopia in six cases with various forms of ET. |
