Abstract
A rare case of complete penoscrotal transposition with hypospadias in a newborn.
Highlights
Penoscrotal transposition (PST) can be defined as either complete or incomplete according to the positional exchanges between the penis and scrotum and both forms of PST are generally linked with hypospadias
We present a complete PST in a patient with urinary tract abnormalities including hypospadias, polycystic renal disease, and malpositioned right kidney
A final prenatal diagnosis of PST and severe hypospadias was made based on these perinatal evaluations
Summary
Dear Editor, Penoscrotal transposition (PST) is an infrequent congenital external genital malformation in which the scrotum is located superior and anterior to the penis[1]. PST can be defined as either complete or incomplete according to the positional exchanges between the penis and scrotum and both forms of PST are generally linked with hypospadias. Incomplete transposition is the common form of this entity and the penis lies in the middle of the scrotum, but in complete transposition, the scrotum almost entirely covers the penis, which emerges from the perineum[2].
