Abstract

Purpose: Perineal ectopic testis is seen very rarely and here we report on two patients with perineal ectopic testis.

Methods/results: We experienced two cases of perineal ectopic testis on which orchiopexies to the corresponding hemiscrotums were performed.

Conclusions: On surgical exploration, the gubernaculum testes were found to lie fixed to the perineum.
