Abstract
We describe a patient who presented with a painful mass in the left inguinoscrotal region, gynecomastia, perineal hypospadias with chordee and a bifid scrotum with a small gonad in the right hemiscrotum. At operation the left mass was found to be an ovotestis with hemorrhage in a corpus luteum cyst. A rudimentary uterus and fallopian tube were situated next to the ovotestis. The right gonad also was an ovotestis with a tiny focus of small cell malignancy that was suggestive of nephroblastoma.Keywords
