Penoscrotal transposition (PST) is a group of congenital defects involving an abnormal spatial arrangement of penis and scrotum.

Types

There are two types of penoscrotal transposition.

• 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.
