Extracorporeal Testicular Ectopia through Femoral Region: A Rare Variant of Scrotoschisis.

A 2-year-old male child presented to us with absent left testis in scrotum since birth. Parents noted a pinkish white globular mass in medial aspect of left thigh. At the time of presentation (2 years old) he had a 2 x 2 cm, firm, subcutaneous swelling located on the medial aspect of the left thigh. Ultrasonography was suggestive of left ectopic testis of size 1 x 1.2cm in the femoral region. Orchidopexy was done. In our case the term scrotoschisis will not be appropriate as testicular extrusion has occurred through femoral region and not the scrotum. This can be considered as extracorporeal testicular ectopia or bubonoschisis, respective to the location of the defect. We are reporting a case of extra corporeal testicular ectopia through the femoral region for the first time.

Congenital Urethrocutaneous Fistula.

ABSTRACT: Male congenital urethrocutaneous fistula is an extremely rare anomaly that is commonly associated with chordee or anorectal malformations. It is characterised by an abnormal urethral opening on the ventral aspect of the penis with well-formed distal urethra and meatus at the tip of the glans. The treatment is individualised according to the site of the fistula, associated anomalies and condition of the distal urethra. The principles of hypospadias surgery should be strictly followed.

Neonatal Sigmoid Colon Perforation in Low Anorectal Malformation.

Anorectal malformations (ARMs) are common congenital anomalies in neonates. Colonic perforation is very rare in ARMs. Delay in diagnosis of neonate with ARM results in colonic perforations and life-threatening morbidity. Colonic perforation due to ARM may not be completely avoided; however, early diagnosis and management are essential in assuring better outcomes.
