Unusual parascrotal hernia with ectopic testicle in a neonate. Case report.
A giant indirect inguinal hernia leading to a huge parascrotal mass in a newborn is described. The right scrotum was empty and the ectopic testicle was found in the perineum, close to the anus. To our knowledge this is the first report of the presence at delivery of a parascrotal inguinal hernia in combination with an ectopic testicle.
