Abstract

Background: Persistent Mullerian duct syndrome (PMDS) is a rare disorder of sexual development that results in the presence of internal female reproductive structures in male children who are otherwise phenotypically normal. The removal of the Mullerian structures is suggested, as they pose a risk for future malignancy. Case Presentation: In this study, we present the case of a 14-month-old male infant who initially presented with bilateral nonpalpable undescended testes and was later diagnosed with PMDS. The effective removal of the Mullerian structures and bilateral orchiopexy was performed using robot-assisted laparoscopy, a novel approach for such a scenario. Conclusion: To our knowledge, this is the first report of using robotics for management of this syndrome.
