Abstract
Persistent mullerian duct syndrome (PMDS) is a rare form of male pseudohermaphroditism caused by defects in synthesis or actions of mullerian inhibiting factor characterised by persistence of mullerian duct structures in a normal karyotype male. Transverse testicular ectopia (TTE) is a rare disease in which both testes are located in the same inguinal canal. We report a case of PMDS with TTE in a 1-year-old child who presented with non-palpable testis on right side with hernia on left side. Left herniotomy with bilateral trans-septal orchidopexy was done in this patient. © BMJ Publishing Group Ltd (unless otherwise stated in the text of the article) 2018. All rights reserved.
