Abstract

Ectopic scrotum is a rare and unusual presentation to paediatric urology. It is usually characterized by accessory scrotum with adequate scrotum in the anatomically normal position. We describe a case of inguinal ectopia of the right hemiscrotum containing the right testis, and its staged surgical management by rotation flap scrotoplasty and subsequent orchidopexy.
