Traumatic testicular dislocation is rare but requires immediate emergency physician awareness. Prompt recognition and management, such as closed reduction in the emergency department, can lead to successful outcomes.

Area of Science:

Urology
Emergency Medicine
Trauma Surgery

Background:

Traumatic testicular dislocation is an infrequent occurrence, with limited documented cases.
Perineal trauma can precipitate testicular dislocation, necessitating prompt medical attention.

Observation:

A case of testicular dislocation resulting from a motorcycle crash is presented.
The patient sustained perineal trauma leading to the dislocation.

Findings:

Successful management was achieved through closed reduction performed in the emergency department.
The patient experienced a favorable outcome with close urologic follow-up.

Implications:

Emergency physicians must maintain a high index of suspicion for testicular dislocation in patients with perineal trauma.
