Abstract

Testicular dislocation is an uncommon injury after blunt scrotal trauma (with only 150 cases reported) that must be properly diagnosed and treat in order to avoid a testicular atrophy. We presented a case report of traumatic dislocation of right testicle after a motorcycle accident. This type of testicular injury should be included in the whole evaluation of every polytrauma patient and usually requires a surgical treatment. The aim of this report is to clarify some aspects of the management of such rare entity.
