doppler ultrasound examination was performed and it revealed that the left
scrotum was edematous and there was no circulation. The left scrotal
exploration revealed a 270 degree testicular torsion . It was detorsioned and
fixed.

Giriş: İnmemiş
testis; çocukluk çağında sıklıkla görülen tedavisi cerrahi olan inguinal bölge
problemlerindendir. İşlem sırasında testis supradartos poşa yerleştirilir,
daraltma işlemi uygulanır ve geç dönemde etraf dokulara yapışarak yukarı
kaçmayacağı ya da torsiyone olmayacağı düşünülür. İki yıl önce dış merkezde orşidopeksi
yapılmış olan testiste, travma öyküsü olmadan, gelişen testis torsiyonu olgusunun
sunulması amaçlandı.
Sonuç: İnmemiş
testis ameliyatı yapılan hastalarda da ender
olsa da geç dönem testis torsiyonunun, akut skrotum nedeni olabileceği akılda
tutulmalıdır.
