Abstract:
Persistent mullerian duct syndrome is an uncommon condition which is a consequence of a defect in either the production or the peripheral action of mullerian inhibiting substance(MIS). We experienced a case of persistent mullerian duct syndrome of a 28 year-old patient who had a testis and female internal genital organs such as mullerian duct remnant in right scrotum with inguinal hernia and an undescended testis in left side. The patient was managed by resection of the left testis and the female internal genital organs such as mullerian duct remnant, and orchiopexy for right undescended testis.
