Abstract:
A healthy 5-year-old boy presented with two palpable masses in the right hemiscrotum. An examination also showed a palpable mass in the left groin. During surgery, he was found to have right-sided biorchism and a left groin nodule attached to the left vas deferens and spermatic cord. The nodule was excised and histologic examination showed the presence of persistent Mullerian structures. A chromosome analysis showed the normal male karyotype. Both conditions have been previously reported, but this is the first report of both conditions occurring in the same patient.
