We report a case of fused testes in a patient with transverse testicular ectopia and persistent Mullerian duct syndrome. A laparoscopy performed to confirm the diagnosis showed a single vas deferens on the left side. Treatment included excision of the Mullerian remnant through a left inguinal incision and orchidopexy of the fused testes via the left inguinal canal after sectioning of the right internal spermatic vessels. Follow-up ultrasound has so far confirmed viability of both testes. UROLOGY 76: 62-64, 2010. (C) 2010 Elsevier Inc.

Abstract
We report a case of fused testes in a patient with transverse testicular ectopia and persistent Mullerian duct syndrome. A laparoscopy performed to confirm the diagnosis showed a single vas deferens on the left side. Treatment included excision of the Mullerian remnant through a left inguinal incision and orchidopexy of the fused testes via the left inguinal canal after sectioning of the right internal spermatic vessels. Follow-up ultrasound has so far confirmed viability of both testes. UROLOGY 76: 62-64, 2010.
