Abstract

Peno-scrotal transposition is an infrequent genital malposition due to a defect in the caudal migration of the inchoate scrotum during intrauterine life. It is frequently associated with urogenital and/or gastrointestinal malformations. Glenn and Anderson (1973) have classified the abnormality into the following categories, according to severity: Bifid scrotum Incomplete or partial peno-scrotal transposition Complete peno-scrotal transposition or pre-penile scrotum Ectopic scrotum We analyse corrective surgical techniques for this malposition and we present our experience.
