Abdominal polyorchidism: an unusual variant.
We describe an 18-month-old boy with polyorchidism in whom both ipsilateral testes were located intra-abdominally. To our knowledge no prior reports have documented a similar case in the literature to date. This case has important implications pertaining to the treatment of intra-abdominal cryptorchid testes. Intra-abdominal polyorchidism and its management are discussed briefly.
