 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 14 Misdiagnosis of testicular torsion and review of literature Of: Yao Jianzhong, Li Kunlin, Duan Juan, Liu Qigui [Abstract] Objective To improve the clinician’s diagnosis and treatment of testicular torsion, reduce misdiagnosis. Methods reported 2 cases of testicular torsion because of delayed treatment of patients with treatment data, combined with the literature on its etiology, clinical manifestations, diagnosis and misdiagnosis of ultrasound were reviewed and analyzed. Results of the 2 patients underwent surgical exploration, 1 patient underwent orchiectomy, testicular necrosis, a routine reduction and fixation of the ipsilateral testis, testicular atrophy after loss of function. Conclusions time after the onset of treatment, accurate diagnosis and timely treatment of the right The key is to avoid testicular loss, color Doppler ultrasound is the preferred method of examination of testicular torsion, prompt surgical exploration can improve testicular salvage rates. [Keywords:] of testicular torsion, color Doppler ultrasound, cremasteric reflex, trauma: misdiagnosis [Abstract] Objective To improve the treatment level for testicular torsion and reduce misdiagnosis.Methods We reported the data of 2 cases of testicular torsion because of delayed presentation and analyzed its etiological factor, clinical manifestations, ultrasound results, causes of misdiagnosis and relevant literatures. Results There were 2 cases who received surgical exploration.One underwent routine orchiectomy because of testicle nocrosis, and the other one underwent routine reduction and fixation, and then the testicle atrophied post operation.Conclusion Timely presentation, correct diagnosis and proper treatment are critical to save the affected testicle.Color doppler ultrasonography is the first choice for diagnozing the testicular torsion, and timely surgical exploration can improve the salvage rate of testicle.
