Abstract
Bilobed testicle is an extremely rare testicular malformation inchildren. It may be presumed that this condition could be an incompleteexpression of polyorchidism; however, the etiology of bothentities remains unknown. In this report, a 3-year-old boy presentedwith a right bilobed testicle mimicking a testicular tumour. Sincethere are insufficient data in the pediatric literature presenting theideal management of bilobed testicles, we believe it is importantto report this case to provide more information about this condition.Although rare, bilobed testis should be considered in the differentialdiagnosis of a testicular mass. Surgical treatment is notmandatory, and conservative follow-up may play a role.
