In this case report we present a 14-year-old boy with two testicles in the right hemiscrotum - a case of polyorchidism. He did not have surgery for his condition, and his condition was followed according to the guidelines. In a study, 6.4% of cases with polyorchidism were found to contain neoplasms of which the most were malignant. If the supernumerary testicle is not contributing to the spermatogenesis, it is therefore recommended to remove the testicle. Otherwise, recommendations are a yearly follow-up by Doppler ultrasound, including a physical examination to discover development of cancer.
在本病例报告中，我们介绍了一名14岁男孩，其右侧阴囊内有两个睾丸——这是一例多睾症病例。他未针对此病症进行手术，而是根据指南对其病情进行随访。在一项研究中，发现6.4%的多睾症病例伴有肿瘤，其中大多数为恶性肿瘤。因此，如果多余的睾丸对精子发生没有作用，建议切除该睾丸。否则，建议每年通过多普勒超声进行随访，包括体格检查以发现癌症的发展情况。
