Abstract:
Scrotoschisis (extracorporeal testicular ectopia) is a rare congenital defect of the scrotal sac associated with the extrusion of one or both testicles. The exact mechanism causing the anomaly is largely unknown. This is a report of two infants aged 3 and 4 days, respectively, presented with infected unilateral extracorporeal testicular ectopia. Both infants had orchidopexy and repair of the scrotal defect following debridement of the infected defects and administration of broad-spectrum parenteral antibiotics. The infants have remained well at 3 years of follow-up. The isolated unilateral disease was described by several authors. Delayed presentation in scrotoschisis results in superimposed infection which complicates surgical management resulting in a prolonged hospital stay.
