Penoscrotal transposition
Penoscrotal transposition (PST) is a group of congenital defects involving an abnormal spatial arrangement of penis and scrotum.
Types
[edit]There are two types of penoscrotal transposition.[1]
- Complete penoscrotal transposition
- Incomplete penoscrotal transposition
In incomplete penoscrotal transposition, penis is located in the middle of the scrotum, but in complete transposition, penis is located in the perineum. [2]

Treatment
[edit]Gold standard of PST treatment is surgical repair.[2] Repair technique of penoscrotal transposition included a Glenn–Anderson technique, which is developed by F. Glenn and E. Everett Anderson.[3][4]
