Conservative management of polyorchidism in a young man: a case report and review of literature

Ricky H Bhogal et al. Pediatr Surg Int. 2007 Jul.

Abstract

Approximately 100 cases of polyorchidism have been reported in the literature. Management remains controversial especially if there is no associated abnormality identified. We report a case of triorchidism confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The patient has been managed conservatively and remains under regular radiological follow-up with MRI.
