title: Polyorchidism: functional classification and management strategy.
abstract: Polyorchidism is rare. We report a recent case and review the literature. A simple classification based on anatomic and functional arrangements of the testes and their drainage systems is described. Combining this classification with a knowledge of potential complications, we propose a management strategy.
