Asynchronous Bilateral Intravaginal Testicular Torsion in a 17-year-old Boy
Asynchronous testicular torsion refers to testicular torsion occurring at different times on each side (i.e., torsion of one testis followed later by torsion of the contralateral testis), rather than both testes twisting simultaneously. A 17-year-old boy was referred to the Clinic twice as an emergency. The first time was due to torsion of the left testicle. After a physical examination and echo Doppler, the patient underwent urgent surgery, and a right testicle detorsion was performed, with the testicle being saved. We did not fix the left testicle. The second time, two months later, he came to our clinic because of torsion of the right testicle. We operated patient urgently without a preoperative Doppler. The second testicle was also operated on in time.
