“…The transabdominal phase of testicular descent is thought to be controlled by MIS, which is secreted locally by each testis (paracrine effect). However, laparoscopy has been reported to aid in placing the ectopic testis with the attached rim of Mullerian structures through a direct route medial to the internal ring in the ipsilateral hemiscrotum [8,9]. We postulate that an earlier development of one ipsilateral Mullerian structure may pull the contralateral testis toward the developed Mullerian side.…”

A 4-month-old male child presented with right undescended testis and left inguinal hernia with funiculitis. Ultrasonography showed funiculitis on the left side testis along with presence of 1.5 × 1 cm testis like structure just above left testis and empty right scrotal sac without any evidence of mullerian structures. On diagnostic laparoscopy, right testicular vessels were crossing from right to left and had uterus with both testes in left hernia sac. Mobilization of vessels, division of uterus, and hernia repair was done laparoscopically. On the review of literature, there is only one case report of total laparoscopic repair of transversetesticular ectopia (TTE) with hernia without persistent mullerian duct (PMDS). The uniqueness of our case is that it had TTE with hernia and PMDS, which were totally managed by laparoscopy. On 6 months of follow-up, both the testes are palpable in scrotum.

“…Le diagnostic est port6, le plus souvent, en per-op~ratoire au cours d'une cure d'hernie inguinale (41%) [6]. La d~couverte du testicule ectopique se fait de plus en plus en pr~op~ratoire par ~chographie, IRM pelvienne, angio-IRM, ou par laparoscopie diagnostique qui repr~sente, actuellement, la technique de rdf~rence dans i'exploration des testicules non descendus non palpables [2][3][4]10].…”
