A Child with 3 Testes: Polyorchism

Polyorchism or supernumerary testicle is a rare congenital anomaly, marked by the presence of more than two Testicles. Triorchidism is so far, the most commonly reported variety.[1] These supernumerary testicles may be intra-scrotal and/or associated with cryptorchidism. Polyorchidism is generally an asymptomatic condition but can be found incidentally due to its association with inguinal hernia, undescended testicles, testicular torsion, and to a lesser extent, to hydrocele.[2]
