Transverse testicular ectopia is a rare anomaly characterized by testicular descent into the scrotum through the same inguinal canal. Here, we report the case of a 15-year-old boy diagnosed with transverse testicular ectopia wherein both testes descended through separate inguinal canals. He underwent a diagnostic laparoscopy which helped to identify both spermatic cords entering both inguinal canals separately. During scrotal exploration, both testes were found in the same side. Transseptal orchidopexy was performed. The short-term follow-up is uneventful.
睾丸横过异位是一种罕见的异常情况,其特征为睾丸通过同一腹股沟管下降至阴囊。在此,我们报告一例15岁男孩被诊断为睾丸横过异位的病例,该病例中双侧睾丸通过各自独立的腹股沟管下降。他接受了诊断性腹腔镜检查,这有助于识别双侧精索分别进入双侧腹股沟管。在阴囊探查过程中,发现双侧睾丸位于同一侧。遂进行了经中隔睾丸固定术。短期随访情况良好。
