Polyorchidism in a newborn: case report and review of the literature

M Nistal et al. Pediatr Pathol. 1990.

Abstract

A case of polyorchidism in a newborn is reported. The left scrotum contained two testes sharing the same epididymis and vas deferens. The histometric testicular parameters were normal in the three testes, except for a slightly reduced tubular fertility index in the supernumerary testis.
