Abstract
Testicular trauma is a rare emergency. While penetrating injuries need surgical revision, blunt injuries may be treated conservatively. However, in case of testicular rupture early surgical intervention increases the chance of testicular preservation. Therefore, a meticulous urological diagnosis is important to avoid complications and to reduce rates of secondary orchiectomy.Entities:
