Unilateral Suprainguinal Ectopic Scrotum: Case Report and Literature Review.

Ectopic scrotum is an infrequent congenital scrotal anomaly. Different surgical methods of correcting ectopic scrotum have been used, but none have produced optimal cosmetic results for all types. We describe a case of left ectopic suprainguinal scrotum in a 14-month-old boy who had an undescended left testicle and a left-sided scrotal skin tag. Single-stage rotational flap scrotoplasty and unilateral orchiopexy were performed; however, we modified the surgical technique of scrotal rotation by excising the intervening longitudinal skin. Eight months after surgery, the repositioned scrotum had a better appearance, and the affected testicle was similar in size to the contralateral one. In comparison with other surgical methods, pedicle flap rotation of the ectopic scrotal skin with excision of the intervening longitudinal skin may produce a better cosmetic outcome.
