Abstract:
Crossed testicular ectopia is a rare anomaly, in which both testes migrate toward the same hemiscrotum. Fewer than 100 cases of this condition have been reported in the literature worldwide. Occasionally, conditions initially suspected to be crossed testicular ectopia have proven to be other anomalies, including hypospadias, renal agenesis, and seminal vesicle cysts. In this case, we diagnosed ganglioneuroblastoma in a patient with testicular ectopia.
