Transverse testicular ectopia (TTE) is a rare but well-known congenital anomaly that occurs 1 in 4 million in which both testes migrate toward the same hemiscrotum. In most of the cases it is an intra-operative finding, but preoperative diagnosis can be made by careful history taking, physical examination and imaging studies. Further evaluation is very important because it can be associated with other congenital anomalies. We report a case of TTE in a 32 years old male who presented with sudden painful swelling in right inguinoscrotal region. Physical examination revealed right sided obstructed inguinal hernia and left sided non palpable testis with underdevelopment of left hemiscrotum. On exploration, one testis is found within the hernial sac and the other testis within scrotum of same side. The testis which was already in right side of scrotum was kept in same place and the other testis which was found within hernial sac was kept in subdartos pouch at the root of right side of scrotum.

Colonic lipomas are uncommon nonepithelial neoplasms that are typically sessile, asymptomatic and incidentally found during endoscopy, surgery, or autopsy. We present a very rare case of a 34-year-old female patient with symptomatic pedunculated cecal lipoma causing intermittent colo-colonic intussusception. Despite adequate imaging studies, definite preoperative diagnosis was not established and the patient underwent exploratory laparotomy. Intraoperatively, intussusception of the cecum into the ascending colon was found and right hemicolectomy was performed. Macroscopic assessment of the resected specimen showed the presence of a giant cecal pedunculated polypoid tumor with features of lipoma, causing intussusception. Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of pedunculated cecal lipoma.

Transverse testicular ectopia is a rare congenital anomaly in which both testes are located in the same hemiscrotum or inguinal region. The mean age at presentation was reported as 4 years. It is more common on the right side. We here report a case with incarcerated inguinal hernia and transverse testicular ectopia. The most important points in the diagnosis of transverse testicular ectopia are to be aware of this infrequent malformation and performing genitourinary examination of male newborns.

Background: Sturge-Weber syndrome is a rare congenital neuro- oculo- cutaneous disorder. Objective: To report a very rare unusual case of bilateral manifestation of Sturge Weber syndrome. Case: We report an unusual case of a 17-year-old female with advanced stage of bilateral glaucoma associated with facial nevus extending to the other half of the face as well and bilateral intracranial calcification. Conclusion: Sturge -Weber syndrome can manifest as a bilateral condition. Nepal J Ophthalmol 2013; 5(9):129-132 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/nepjoph.v5i1.7841

Transverse testicular ectopia (TTE) is an extremely rare congenital anomaly of the testis, characterized by migration of one testis toward the contrary hemiscrotum. TTE is usually associated with other testicular abnormalities such as persistent Mullerian duct syndrome, hypospadias, true hermaphroditism, and scrotal anomalies. Testicular sonography is the main initial diagnostic modality, followed by magnetic resonance imaging of the scrotum. These imaging modalities are important for determination of TTE and characterization of the testicular lesions. This case report provides the high-resolution ultrasonography, Doppler ultrasonography, magnetic resonance imaging, and diffusion-weighted imaging findings of a young man with seminoma in the transverse testicular ectopia. In addition, data on tumor stiffness, obtained with point shear-wave sonoelastography, are presented.

Amyand's hernia is a rare form of an inguinal hernia (less than 1% of inguinal hernias) which occurs when the appendix is a part of hernial sac. Because of anatomical position of the appendix, it is most commonly found in the right sided hernial sac and it can also be accompanied by the caecum and/or right colon. In rare case, Amyand’s hernia can appear on the left side also. Here we report a case of left sided amyand’s hernia with acute perforated appendicitis in a 58 years old male patient at GMERS hospital, Dharpur, Patan, Gujarat, India.
