OBJECTIVE: To describe a case of crossed @entity10523 that was diagnosed in a 52-year-old @entity1 who had consulted for @entity249 associated with @entity790 . METHODS: @entity1 evaluation included hematological, hormonal, cytogenetic and imaging studies. An exploratory operation was also performed. RESULTS: The hematological, hormonal and cytogenetic studies gave normal results. There were no urinary tract abnormalities in the intravenous urography; retrograde urethrography disclosed a narrow duct behind the urethra that ascended towards the left inguinal duct and divided into two epididymides after reaching the scrotum. Surgical exploration showed two testes in the left scrotal pouch that were biopsied. Histological examination revealed an almost complete hyalinization of the tubular wall with no germ cells within the tubules. CONCLUSIONS: Crossed @entity10523 is one of the most uncommon @entity154 and is often associated with other disorders such as @entity169 , @entity2650 , @entity4998 and @entity854 . Like all dysgenetic testes, progression to @entity5 is relatively frequent. The foregoing should be remembered when dealing with these @entity1 .
