An ectopic scrotum (ES) represents a rare developmental anomaly of the male genitalia. The condition usually represents a part of a wide spectrum pathology associated with other anomalies. The different locations in which an ectopic scrotum is found include inguinal, suprainguinal, infrainguinal, and/or perineum. There are several surgical techniques described in the literature related to the management of ES, but none of them showed superior results. We present a rare case of ectopic hemiscrotum managed as part of a multidisciplinary team approach, showing the utility of double opposing transposition z-plasty flaps in managing such a case.
异位阴囊(ES)是一种罕见的男性生殖器发育异常。这种情况通常是与其他异常相关的广泛谱系病理学的一部分。发现异位阴囊的不同位置包括腹股沟、腹股沟上、腹股沟下和/或会阴。文献中描述了几种与ES治疗相关的手术技术,但没有一种显示出优越的效果。我们报告一例罕见的异位半阴囊病例,采用多学科团队方法进行治疗,展示了双反向转位Z形成形皮瓣在处理此类病例中的效用。
