Zusammenfassung:Background: Incidence and recognition of the congenital anomalies involving vas (or) ductus deferens, also called as sperm duct, are low, particularly when duplication of the sperm duct and epididymis occurs together. These anomalies, although of rare incidence, should be considered while performing surgeries related to the spermatic cord, to prevent inadvertent damage. Case presentation: We, here, present a case of a seventeen year old boy with undescended testis on left side, where laparoscopic evaluation revealed polyorchidism. The accessory testis was removed, and histo-pathological examination confirmed duplication of the sperm duct and the epididymis. Conclusion: This case scenario highlights the importance of recognizing and managing rare urogenital anomalies during procedures involving handling of spermatic cord structures.
