“…There are four types of congenital scrotal anomalies that include penoscrotal transposition, bifid scrotum, ES, and accessory scrotum. The first two are more common, while the latter two are rare ( 12 , 13 ). From the point of view of embryonic development, there is a hypothesis that ES is associated with defective gubernaculum formation during the conception period.…”

BackgroundEctopic scrotum (ES) is an extremely rare congenital scrotal malformation. Ectopic scrotum with VATER/VACTERL [vertebral defects (V), anal atresia or anorectal malformations (A), cardiac defects (C), tracheoesophageal fistula with or without esophageal atresia (TE), cardiac defects, renal malformations (R), and limb defects (L)] association is even rarer. There are no uniform guidelines for diagnosis and treatment.Clinical caseWe described a 2-year-5-month-old boy who has ectopic scrotum and penoscrotal transposition and reviewed relevant literature in this report. We performed laparoscopy exploration, rotation flap scrotoplasty, and orchiopexy and achieved a great result during the postoperative follow-up.ConclusionsCombined with the previous literature, we made a summary to come up with a plan for the diagnosis and treatment of ectopic scrotum. Rotation flap scrotoplasty and orchiopexy are worthy of considering operative methods in treating ES. For penoscrotal transposition or VATER/VACTERL association, we can treat the diseases individually.

“…Often, there is a testis that is needed to be preserved on the ipsilateral side of ES. Unlike ES, the accessory scrotum without a testis can be simply removed ( 13 ). Therefore, it is particularly important to evaluate the existence of the ipsilateral testis before the operation.…”

Unilateral Suprainguinal Ectopic Scrotum: Case Report and Literature Review

Ectopic scrotum is an infrequent congenital scrotal anomaly. Different surgical methods of correcting ectopic scrotum have been used, but none have produced optimal cosmetic results for all types. We describe a case of left ectopic suprainguinal scrotum in a 14-month-old boy who had an undescended left testicle and a left-sided scrotal skin tag. Single-stage rotational flap scrotoplasty and unilateral orchiopexy were performed; however, we modified the surgical technique of scrotal rotation by excising the intervening longitudinal skin. Eight months after surgery, the repositioned scrotum had a better appearance, and the affected testicle was similar in size to the contralateral one. In comparison with other surgical methods, pedicle flap rotation of the ectopic scrotal skin with excision of the intervening longitudinal skin may produce a better cosmetic outcome.

“…Ectopic scrotum is different from accessory scrotum, which has also been described in some publications. The latter is not associated with intrascrotal testis, and typically requires the hemiscrotum to be removed (5) .…”

Introduction. Ectopic scrotum is a rare clinical entity, potentially associated with other congenital abnormalities. We present the case of a patient with buried penis secondary to ectopic scrotum. The surgical technique was described, and a literature review was carried out.Clinical case. 1-year-old patient with ectopic right hemiscrotum and the testes within the scrotal sac. A double Z-plasty was performed with two flaps -one above the penis, surrounding the ectopic scrotum, and the other one at the scrotum to modify the bifid scrotum. The upper flap was rotated downwards, which allowed ectopy to be repaired, and the lower flap was used to repair bifidity. No postoperative complications were recorded. Follow-time was 6 months, with good final cosmetic results.Discussion. Ectopic scrotum is an infrequent congenital malformation. Cutaneous rotation flaps with Z-plasties are a valid treatment option, with good long-term cosmetic results.
