Abstract

Testicular torsion due to long mesorchium is a rare clinical condition among genitourinary emergencies. An one-year-old patient with scrotal swelling and pain admitted to hospital. His symptoms was started about 24 hours before the admission. On scrotal Doppler ultrasonography, there was no colour filling or blood flow in left testicle. The patient was operated with the pre-diagnosis of testicular torsion. During the operation, left testicular torsion was noticed. When the testicular detorsion was performed, it was found that testicular torsion was due to long mesorchium. Bilateral testicular fixation was performed. We believe that careful evaluation during testicular detorsion is helpful to determine the frequency of testicular torsion due to long mesorchium.

Uzun Mezorşiuma Bağlı Testis Torsiyonu: Olgu Sunumu

Abstract

Uzun mezorşiuma bağlı testis torsiyonu, genitoüriner aciller arasında nadir görülen bir klinik durumdur. Skrotal şişlik ve ağrı yakınması ile hastanemize başvuran bir yaşındaki olgunun şikâyetinin yaklaşık 24 saat önce başladığı öğrenildi. Skrotal renkli doppler ultrasonografi görüntülemesinde sol testiste renk dolumu ve kan akımı izlenmedi. Fakat artmış epididim kanlanması görüldü. Testiküler torsiyon ön tanısı ile operasyona alınan hastada, sol testisin torsiyone olduğu gözlendi. Testiküler detorsiyon yapıldığında, uzun mezoorşioma bağlı testis torsiyonunun geliştiği anlaşıldı. Bilateral skrotal fiksasyon yapıldı. Testiküler detorsiyon ile birlikte yapılacak bir değerlendirmenin, uzun mezorşiuma bağlı testis torsiyonu sıklığının ortaya konmasında faydalı olacağına inanıyoruz.
