摘要
Acute testicular infarction requiring emergent surgical intervention is often the result of spermatic cord torsion; infrequently, infarction results from other etiologies. We report a case of epididymo-orchitis complicated by abscess resulting in testicular ischemia, not detected on ultrasonography. A high clinical suspicion of testicular ischemia should be maintained in any presentation of testicular pain and swelling, as recognition could lead to early salvage interventions.
