    Author: Kella N, Rathi PK, Qureshi MA.
    Journal: J Coll Physicians Surg Pak; 2008 Apr; 18(4):250-1. PubMed ID: 18474165.
    Abstract:
    A 10-month-old male infant presented with bilateral inguinal hernia and left un-descended testis. During right herniotomy, both gonads were found on same side with mullerian duct structures. On naked eye examination, both gonads were normal looking. Excision of mullerian duct remnant and fixation of ectopic testis was made. Histopathological examination revealed that gonads were testicles. Presence of multiple granulomas composed of Langhans cells and epithelioid cells in ectopic testicle suggested tuberculosis. Patient was kept on antituberculous therapy and was on regular follow-up without any complication.
