[Cryptorchidism with didymo-epididymal dissociation and Robinow's syndrome: 2 case reports].
Two brothers of normal not consanguineous parents, with bilateral intrabdominal cryptorchidism, were admitted to our Institution. Both children had short stature, limb and hand malformations and craniofacial patterns of Robinow syndrome. During the orchidopexy, bilateral epididymal and vasal abnormalities were found in both of them. This anomaly associated with Robinow syndrome has never been reported before. These two cases provides the Authors with the opportunity of reviewing clinical features, genetics and radiological patterns of this rare syndrome.
