Abstract
A case of crossed ectopic testis is reported. On reviewing the literature according to the definition of the condition only 30 cases can be accepted as authentic cases. Analysing the clinical and other investigations, it is suggested that this is a local phenomenon without any endocrinal derangement, due to a developmental insult resulting in failure of gubernacular mechanism and consequently failure to open the inguinal rings and the descent to the opposite side is due to adhesions to the testis with normal gubernacular mechanism and inguinal rings.
