ABSTRACT
Transverse testicular ectopia(TTE) is a rare anomaly defined by the presence of both testis in the same hemiscrotum or in the same inguinal canal.The main treatment of TTE is surgical intervention. Here we report a case of type 2 transverse testicular ectopia in an eight months old child. The boy had a right side inguinal hernia and a non-palpable testis on the left side. Ultrasonography confirmed the presence of both testis at the right inguinal region. Our case was associated with the persistence of Mullerian duct. After the excision of the Mullerian duct remnant, bilateral orchiopexy was performed.

Child is an ideal patient for day care surgery. So more than 60% of paediatric surgery could benefit by ambulatory surgery. Preoperative visit may select patients for ambulatory surgery. Medical exam may lead to choose pre operative screening. The ideal ambulatory anesthesia is locoregional technic or inhalatory one. Tracheal intubation don't contre indicate ambulatory surgery. Recovery of mental abilities following general anesthesia has not the same significance as in adult. Many studies confirm the safety of paediatric outpatients anesthesia.
