OBJECTIVE
Intermittent testicular torsion (ITT) is a poorly characterized condition but harbors potentially serious implications with regard to testicular viability. We report better characterization of the diagnostic features of ITT.
METHODS
We performed a retrospective review of all patients 1 to
To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of testicular torsion in children and adolescents and to analyze the postoperative outcomes.We retrospectively analyzed 109 cases of unilateral testicular torsion treated in our hospital between 2015 and 2017, OBJECTIVE
To review and update several aspects of testicular torsion.
BACKGROUND
The relative incidence of testicular torsion, torsion of testicular appendix and epididymo-orchitis is variable and depends on mode of diagnosis and patients' age. AGE: Testicular torsion can occur at any age. The peak
OBJECTIVE
To improve clinicians' ability of diagnosing testicular torsion.
METHODS
We reviewed the data of a case of testicular torsion that resulted in necrosis because of delayed presentation and repeated misdiagnosis, and analyzed its anatomic features, clinical manifestations, ultrasound
Purpose: The TWIST (Testicular Work-up for Ischemia and Suspected Torsion) score was developed to allow for expedited diagnosis of testicular torsion (TT) in children based on clinical variables: edema (2 points), hard mass (2), absent
OBJECTIVE
The aim of the study was to identify clinical findings associated with increased likelihood of testicular torsion (TT) in children.
METHODS
This study used a retrospective case series of children with acute scrotum presenting to a pediatric emergency department (ED).
RESULTS
Five hundred
Transient testicular torsion (TTT) occurs when the torsion of the spermatic cord is reversed automatically within few minutes, with subsequent restoration of the blood ow to the suffering testis. e main clinical manifestation is acute scrotal pain, which resolves within a short period of time,
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study was to derive a pilot clinical decision tool with 100% negative predictive value for testicular torsion based on prospectively collected data in children with acute scrotal pain.
METHODS
This was a prospective cohort study of a convenience sample of newborn to
Testicular torsion is caused by twisting of the spermatic cord, which results in compromised testicular blood flow. The degree of ischemic injury is determined by the severity of arterial compression and the interval between the onset of symptoms and surgical intervention. Torsion usually occurs at
Bilateral simultaneous testicular torsion is a rare condition and can be misdiagnosed. The 16-year-old patient presented with a 3 h history of left hemi-scrotal pain, nausea and vomiting. His comorbidities included DiGeorge syndrome (22q11 deletion syndrome). Patient's scrotal examination was
We report a case of testicular torsion in a 14-month old boy. Testicular ischemia was suspected based on history and clinical presentations. The patient was referred following 24 hours of left acute scrotum. Erythema, swelling and tenderness associated with nausea and emesis were present, but the
Testicular torsion is described as the twisting of the spermatic cord resulting in acute pain and ischemia. This has a tendency to occur more frequently during adolescence and its cause is unknown. The most common signs and symptoms include red, swollen scrotum and acutely painful testicle, often in
BACKGROUND
Testicular torsion (TT), or twisting of the testicle resulting in a strangulation of the blood supply, occurs in men whose tissue surrounding the testicle is not well attached to the scrotum. It is important to emphasize that testicular torsion is a medical emergency.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of
BACKGROUND
The acute scrotum is an emergency. Testicular torsion represents approximately 25% of the causes. The annual incidence of testicular torsion is approximately 1/4,000 persons under 25 years, with highest prevalence between 12 and 18 years old. It usually occurs without apparent cause, but
The aim of this study was to investigate demographic and clinical characteristics and outcomes of the treatments of the patients with an unusual presentation of the testicular torsion (TT) and to clarify their peculiarities.From January 1999 until December
