Bilateral testicular torsion in the neonate, although uncommon, is being reported with increasing frequency. Most previously reported cases have been full term, average to above average weight infants born with nonviable testes. We report a case of bilateral neonatal testicular torsion in a 32-week newborn in whom testicular viability may have been preserved by pre-term birth.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
