Bilateral Undescended Testis: A Rare Anomaly

Cryptorchidism is a condition in which one or both the testes have not descended or are not retractable down the scrotal sac. It may be unilateral or bilateral. It is categorized as true undescended testes in which testes are present in the normal route of descent and ectopic testes in which testes may lie outside its normal path of descent at abnormal site. Common complications of Cryptorchidism are testicular cancer, sub fertility, testicular torsion and inguinal hernia. In a male cadaver, both testes were found between the superficial inguinal ring and the scrotum. On dissection the scrotal ligament was observed to be attached to the pubic crest. The genital branch of genitofemoral nerve (GFN) enters the inguinal canal through deep inguinal ring and supplies cremaster and the skin of the scrotum in males, but in this case it does not supply to scrotum.
