The coexistence of persistent Mullerian duct syndrome (PMDS) with transverse testicular ectopia (TTE) is extremely rare. Due to a lack of distinctive clinical features in the early stages, PMDS coexists with TTE is usuallydiagnosed when patients are examined for other diseases,including cryptorchidism and inguinal hernia. We present a case of a 51-year-old man who presented with a recurrent left indirect inguinal hernia for 2 years and right congenital cryptorchidism. The patient was diagnosed as PMDS with TTE by preoperative magnetic resonance imaging and underwent laparoscopic resection of the right transverse ectopic testis and Mullerian duct residues.
持续性苗勒管综合征(PMDS)合并睾丸横位(TTE)极为罕见。由于早期缺乏特征性的临床特征,PMDS 合并 TTE 通常在患者因其他疾病(包括隐睾和腹股沟疝)就诊时被诊断出来。我们报告了 1 例 51 岁男性,因 2 年反复发作的左侧腹股沟斜疝和右侧先天性隐睾就诊。该患者术前磁共振成像诊断为 PMDS 合并 TTE,并接受了腹腔镜右侧横位异位睾丸和苗勒管残迹切除术。
