Conservative Approach in Testicular Rupture: A Rare Case and Its Management

17588

Testicular rupture is quite rare and surgical treatment is defined as the classical treatment. Testicular trauma was occurred in a 13-year-old boy as a result of ball strike while playing football two days ago. There were oedema, swelling, rash and pain in the right scrotum. The scrotal doppler sonography revealed an 18x15 mm-size testis parenchyma protrusion located superior in the anterior part of the right testis to the medial of the tunica albuginea. Late delivered case was followed up with conservative treatment. On the 4th day of hospitalization, the patient was discharged since the hematoma revealed smaller in the control doppler US and testis blood flow was evaluated as normal. Surgical treatment is accepted as the therapy method by early diagnosed cases. By this patient, conservative treatment method also had positive results. We are in the opinion that the conservative approach by late diagnosed solid intraabdominal traumas may be considered also by such cases.
