Abstract

The
acute scrotum is one of the most common urological emergencies in childhood and
adolescence. Testicular rupture in testicular injuries is a very rare
condition. Early exploration and repairment are required in testicular
ruptures. Early exploration reduces testicular orchiectomy rates. In this
study, we presented a patient with a testicular rupture and its treatment after
blunt trauma, which is a rare condition.

Nadir Bir Olgu; Testiküler Rüptür

Abstract

Akut skrotum
çocukluk ve adölesan dönemde sık görülen ürolojik acillerden birisidir. Testis
yaralanmalarında testiküler rüptür oldukça nadir görülen bir durumdur.
Testiküler rüptürde erken eksplorasyon ve onarım gerekmektedir. Erken
eksplorasyon testis orşiyektomi oranlarını azaltmaktadır. Bu çalışmada biz
nadir görülen bir durum olan künt travma sonrası testiküler rüptür olan bir
hastayı ve tedavisini sunduk. 

Keywords
