Abstract

Testicular dystopias are defined by the absence of the testicle in the scrotum. Cryptorchidism is a common presentation in childhood although ectopic testis is very rare. This article reports a case of an inguinal orchidopexy of the ectopic testis on a male patient aged three years and seven months presenting a left testicle located in the perineum.

Keywords: Cryptorchidism, ectopic testis, surgery, child, orchidopexy.
