Abstract:
The authors report 25 cases of scrotal trauma treated between 1977 and 1992. The mean age of the patients was 28 years (17-46). Agressions were the predominant cause (10 cases) followed by traffic accidents (6 cases) and occupational injuries (4 years). Blunt trauma were more frequent (20 cases). A painful, ecchymotic scrotum was the most constant sign; confirmed by ultrasound that better defines the lesions. The surgical exploration was always, indicated and preservation of the gland was possible in 20 patients.
