Abstract
Cryptorchidism, common in urology, carries a high risk of infertility, degeneration, and also appears to be associated with an increased risk of torsion. Despite this, it remains under-addressed in the medical literature. We report the case of an 18-year-old patient, without any particular medical history, brought by his parents to the consultation for a painful right inguinal mass evolving over 72 hours, and whose clinical examination had revealed a painless right inguinal swelling upon palpation. Treatment required emergency surgical exploration revealing torsion of the spermatic cord on a cryptorchid testicle, which was resolved by orchidectomy.
