J Surg Pak Sep 2007;12(3):138-40.
National Institute of Child Health Karachi
A twelve year old boy presented with empty left hemi-scrotum with a swelling in the perineum just left to the midline. Medical advice was sought at the age of 5 years. Diagnosis of perineal ectopic testis was made. Surgery advised but due to poor counseling parents did not bring the child till he became 12 years of age. Through left inguinal incision the ectopic testis was re-routed to left hemi- scrotum with no difficulty. Testis was of good size. Post operative recovery was uneventful.
