Post-traumatic testicular torsion
Ulus Travma Acil Cerrahi Derg.

Abstract
Torsion of the testis is the most common urological emergency and should be included in the differential diagnosis of scrotal trauma. Clinical suspicion of testicular torsion is a serious indication for prompt surgical exploration of post-traumatic acute scrotum. A case of post-traumatic testicular torsion, which resulted in orchiectomy, is presented and literature is reviewed.
