Testicular torsion is a urological emergency that usually affects young men, and a high index of suspicion is vital to ensure prompt diagnosis and management. A history and physical examination consistent with testicular torsion requires immediate surgical assessment for scrotal exploration – and if the initial examination suggests testicular torsion, the surgical approach should take precedence over other diagnostic tests. In this episode, Dr Roger Henderson discusses what to look for when diagnosing this condition, the importance of prompt treatment and the options available in primary care.
