Abstract :
Background and Aims: Transverse testicular ectopia (TTE) or testicular pesudoduplication is a rare
anomaly in which both testis lies in one hemiscrotum. We present a case of 11- month old boy
with transverse testicular ectopia that presented to our clinic with left inguinal hernia and a right
non-palpable testis. Patient was operated on left herniotomy and transseptal orchiopexy after
mobilization of spermatic cord. We also describe its embryology and management in brief, and
review the previously reported cases.
