Prenatally Detected Intrascrotal Testicular Teratoma in an Infant.

ABSTRACT

Although teratomas are the most common tumors in the testes of prepubertal children, prenatally detected testicular teratomas are extremely rare. To date, only 6 cases of prenatally detected testicular teratomas have been reported in the English literature. An intra-abdominal mass and an ipsilateral undescended testis were confirmed after birth in all 6 cases. Preservation of testicular tissue was not performed in any case. Herein, we report the first case of prenatally diagnosed intrascrotal testicular teratoma in an infant who underwent testis sparing surgery.
