Abstract

Traumatic dislocation of the testicle is characterized by an ectopically displaced testis as the result of closed injury. We report on 1 patient with subcutaneous inguinal dislocation of the testis that was successfully treated by immediate closed reduction. Forty-nine other cases (36 unilateral and 13 bilateral) have been previously cited. Diagnostic guidelines, our therapeutic approach, and the relevant literature are presented.
