Diagnosis and management of testicular ruptures
Abstract
Testicular ruptures are a common occurrence in scrotal trauma that can go undetected ifa thorough examination or scrotal ultrasonography is not performed. Timely operative exploration and reconstruction is the standard of care and leads to high testicular salvage rates with hormonal, reproductive, and cosmetic benefits for the patient.
