Abstract
The Perineal ectopic testis (PET) is a kind of Ectopic Testis (ET), in which the testis is located between the penoscrotal raphe and genitofemoral fold. PET is a rare condition with prevalence of 1% of all cases of undescended testis. It is easily identifiable and can be easily treated by orchidopexy before the age of 2 years and by orchidectomy afterwards. PET may be associated with inguinal hernia. In this study we diagnosed a case of rt. sided PET in a 29 years old male patient, associated with Hernia. This case was treated by Orchidectomy and Herniotomy along with Hernioplasty.
