Abstract/OtherAbstract:
We present a case of subacute left testicular pain and enlargement. Scrotal Doppler ultrasound revealed an enlarged left testicle with symmetrical intra-testicular colour flow bilaterally. Contrast-enhanced MRI demonstrated incomplete testicular torsion which was verified at surgery. To our knowledge, this is the first report on the use of contrast-enhanced MRI in the diagnosis of incomplete testicular torsion.
