Abstract

Transverse testicular ectopia with persistent mullerian structures is seldom seen. Although treatment for this condition is well defined, it is very important to suspect persistent mullerian duct syndrome in cases where both testes are found on the same side. We discuss three unusual cases which presented with non- palpable undescended testis on one side and a hernia with two gonads and persistent mullerian structures on the other side.
