摘要
A 15-year-old male patient was admitted to our hospital with a left undescended testis. He also suffered from congenital limb defects. Ultrasonography revealed atrophic testicular tissue in the left groin, approximately 2-cm in size. Upon left inguinal exploration, atrophic testicular tissue was found and an orchidectomy was performed. Histopathological examination revealed splenogonadal fusion, which has a known association with congenital limb defects.
