Article Synopsis
- Perineal ectopic testis (PET) is a rare condition where the testis is misplaced, often diagnosed through physical exams revealing an empty scrotum alongside discomfort in the perineal area, especially when sitting.
- In two pediatric cases, children experienced perineal discomfort leading to difficulties in sitting, prompting surgical intervention (orchidopexy) to correct the testis position, with successful outcomes and no complications.
- Early diagnosis and treatment are vital in PET to ensure proper testicular function, with symptoms of discomfort serving as important indicators for further examination in young patients.
