Abstract:
Extravaginal torsion (EVT) is a rare type of testicular torsion that usually occurs in neonates. The primary type of testicular torsion that occurs in adolescents is intravaginal torsion. In this case report, we describe the first case of EVT reported in a 16-year-old male with a contralateral bell clapper deformity and subsequent surgical management using a tunica vaginalis flap and bilateral orchiopexy. In discussion of this case, we examine possible anatomical causes of EVT and suggestions for appropriate surgical management.
