Prenatal diagnosis of complete penoscrotal transposition with normal scrotum: Two case reports and review of the literature

Didar Kurt et al. J Clin Ultrasound. 2020 Jul.

Abstract

Complete penoscrotal transposition is an extremely rare congenital anomaly and is usually associated with other urinary system abnormalities. Prenatal diagnosis is feasible by demonstrating perineal anatomy and its relation with scrotum and phallus. We describe two prenatal cases presenting with oligohydramniosis and megacystis due to lower urinary tract obstruction. Postnatal diagnosis was confirmed in both cases. Considering the dismal perinatal outcome, an accurate prenatal diagnosis is required for counseling the parents and preparing for postnatal care.

Keywords: megacystis; obstetrics; penoscrotal transposition; ultrasonography.
