Torsion of the Hydatid Testis: A Review of Thirteen Cases

Leon Bender M.D.1, Leon Prinz M.D.1, and David Presman M.D.1

1 Division of Urology, Michael Reese Hospital and Medical, Center, Chicago, Illinois

The clinical and pathological findings in 13 cases of torsion of the hydatid testis are reviewed.

The etiology of this condition can be correlated with the morphological characteristics of the hydatid present in children and young adults.

Emergency exploration is mandatory because of the difficulty in differential diagnosis from torsion of the spermatic cord with gangrene of the testis.
