Abstract EN
Testicular rupture after blunt scrotal trauma is characterized by rupture of the tunica albuginea and extrusion of seminiferous tubules.
This is a serious injury and appropriate evaluation and management are necessary both for symptom control, but also for preservation of the testicle.
Clinical examination of the scrotum following trauma is difficult and may result in incorrect triage of patients for surgical exploration.
This case study describes the assessment and management of blunt testicular trauma in an adolescent lacrosse player.
