Abstract
ORLICH-CASTELAN, Claudio and MURCIA-QUIROS, Osvaldo. Poliorquidismo. Acta méd. costarric [online]. 2005, vol.47, n.4, pp.197-198. ISSN 0001-6002.
We herein report a case of polyorchidism which is a very unusual condition. There have been only about 70 cases reported in the literature. It may result from the transverse division of the urogenital ridge. Accompanying disorders include: mal descended testicles, inguinal hernia, varicocele, testicular torsion and testicular tumors.
Keywords : polyorquidism; congenital disease; uropathology.
