Presence of both testes in an inguinal hernial sac.

Kaushal Kishore Shrivastava1.   

Abstract

A unique case with fully developed testes and epididymis on the same side has been presented. The hypothesis to explain such a rare occurrence is a failure of the development of one-sided gubernaculums coupled with intra-abdominal adhesions of both the cords resulting in unilateral descent of both the testes. In females, the Mullerian ducts fuse to form the uterus; such a phenomenon in the case of Wolffian ducts is an impossibility, but fusion of vasa deferens and cords in this case point to such a happening.
