A Rare Cause of Scrotal Mass in a Newborn: Antenatal Intravaginal Testicular Torsion
Journal Title: JOURNAL OF UROLOGICAL SURGERY - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
Intravaginal testicular torsion is a very rare pathology in the neonatal period. However, it is the most common type of torsion in puberty. In this article, we present a male patient with testicular hyperemia and a mass in the testis. Ultrasonography revealed intravaginal testicular torsion and absence of testicular blood flow. This paper aims to draw attention to the importance of neonatal examination for the presence of testicular torsion which is a rare pathology in newborns with scrotal colour change or presence of an abnormal mass.
