Testicular tumor in a case of, undescended testes, persistent mullerian duct syndrome and transverse testicular ectopia: Report of a case and review of the literature

Abstract

A 20-year-old with normal male body features and secondary sexual characteristics presented with a right testicular swelling. Imaging revealed a right testicular mass, leading to a diagnosis of classical seminoma. During inguinal orchiectomy, a solid testicular mass was found on the right side along with two spermatic cords, one attached to the mass and the other to a structure resembling a testes. Examination showed the presence of other testes and a rudimentary uterus, indicating a rare case of a testicular tumor coexisting with undescended testes and transverse testicular ectopia (TTE) in a Pseudohermaphrodite with “persistent mullerian duct syndrome” (PMDS).
