Acquired intra abdominal testis due to adhesions after necrotizing enterocolitis

Undescendent testis happens usually due to the stagnation during testicular descends. Stagnation of a testicle in the abdomen may be the target of adhesions with intestinal segments. Our case report a very rare variant of acquired intra-abdominal cryptorchidism due to adhesions after necrotizing enterocolitis. Newborn baby after NEC has a significant risk of developing intraperitoneal adhesions. In this report we will describe a case of previously palpable testis in the inguinal canal at neonatal age which was pulled inside the abdomen at seventh month of age through adhesions between test and the segment of sigmoid colon after NEC.
