Triorchidism: A Rare Genitourinary Abnormality

Polyorchidism is an extremely rare congenital anomaly which refers to the presence of more than two testicles. there are very few reports of triorchidism in a 2 year old child. polyorchidism is usually discovered incidentally. the most common anomalies associated with polyorchidism are inguinal hernia (30%), maldescended testis (15% to 30%), testicular torsion (13%) and hydrocele (9%). a 2-year-old child was brought with bilateral undescended testis with normal milestones. ultrasonography of scrotum and abdomen showed both the testes to be in inguinal canal. intra‑operatively, on left side – there were two testes, which belonged to leung iii class and one testis on right side. management of polyorchidism is still controversial. the management of polyorchidism will depend upon the location, size and anatomical organisation of the testicular drainage system and the age of the patient.
