“…The occurrence of meconium periorchitis is the best theory available till date. [ 6 ] There is still no theory to support the mechanism of development of extracorporeal ectopia due to its rarity and limited availability of literature.…”

A 2-year-old male child presented to us with absent left testis in scrotum since birth. Parents noted a pinkish white globular mass in medial aspect of left thigh. At the time of presentation (2 years old) he had a 2 x 2 cm, firm, subcutaneous swelling located on the medial aspect of the left thigh. Ultrasonography was suggestive of left ectopic testis of size 1 x 1.2cm in the femoral region. Orchidopexy was done. In our case the term scrotoschisis will not be appropriate as testicular extrusion has occurred through femoral region and not the scrotum. This can be considered as extracorporeal testicular ectopia or bubonoschisis, respective to the location of the defect. We are reporting a case of extra corporeal testicular ectopia through the femoral region for the first time.

Sonographic evaluation of fetal scrotum, testes and epididymis

External male genitalia have rarely been evaluated on fetal ultrasound. Apart from visualization of the penis for fetal sex determination, there are no specific instructions or recommendations from scientific societies. This study aimed to review the current knowledge about prenatal diagnosis of the scrotum and internal structures, with discussion regarding technical aspects and clinical management. We conducted an article search in Medline, EMBASE, Scopus, Google Scholar, and Web of Science databases for studies in English or Spanish language that discussed prenatal scrotal pathologies. We identified 72 studies that met the inclusion criteria. Relevant data were grouped into sections of embryology, ultrasound, pathology, and prenatal diagnosis. The scrotum and internal structures show a wide range of pathologies, with varying degrees of prevalence and morbidity. Most of the reported cases have described incidental findings diagnosed via striking ultrasound signs. Studies discussing normative data or management are scarce.
