Ectopic adrenal tissue is rare in children. Although its excision is recommended when found incidentally during inguinal surgical procedures, routine exploration is not indicated for the detection of its presence. Here, we present eight cases of ectopic adrenal tissue in pediatric patients who underwent orchidopexy.
