Although anomalies of testicular descent are common, scrotoschisis and extracorporeal testicular ectopia is rare with only 3 reported cases in literature. This is a report of a neonate presenting with scrotoschisis and bilateral extracorporeal testicular ectopia. The right testis underwent torsion before presentation, resulting in gangrene of that testis, requiring orchidectomy. The scrotum was explored and the viable left testis placed in the scrotum and fixed in that position. The left testis has remained normal at 9 months of follow up. The possible embryology and management of this curious anomaly is discussed.
