Abstract

Transverse testicular ectopia (TTE) is a rare congenital anomaly causedby migration of the testes to the same half of the scrotum; it is associatedwith inguinal hernia. In addition, it is present along with persistentMüllerian duct syndrome (PMDS) in approximately 20% of patients. Insuch cases, Müllerian duct excision is recommended. In this article, wepresent two cases of TTE including one case of PMDS accompanied byTTE. Different approaches have been described in the treatment of TTE.Protection of testicular tissue and removal of the Müllerian duct, whenTTE is present along with PMDS, are the basis of treatment.

Özet

Transvers testiküler ektopi (TTE) nadir görülen, her iki testisin birlikte aynı hemiskrotuma göç etmesi ile oluşan ve genellikle inguinal herni ile ilişkili olan konjenital bir anomalidir. Olguların yaklaşık %20’ sinde Persistant Müllerian Kanal Sendromu ile birliktelik vardır. Bu çalışmada 1 olgumuza Persistant Müllerian Kanal Sendromunun eşlik ettiği TTE’li 2 olgumuzu sunduk. TTE tedavisinde farklı yaklaşımlar tarif edilmiştir. Tedavinin temeli testis dokularının korunması ve varsa Müllerian Kanalın çıkarılmasıdır.
