Testicular Early Subacute Torsion & Diffuse Microlithiasis || Ultrasound || Case 323
Visit for more: www.imagingstudy.com/2023/12/...
Clinical Features:
A 13-year-old male patient came with
- Severe left hemiscrotal pain for around 4 days
- Scrotal swelling
Ultrasound Features:
- Swollen left testis & epididymis with inhomogeneous parenchymal echotexture.
- Multiple irregular anechoic spaces within the left testicular parenchyma.
- Color Doppler shows no detectable flow within the left testis & epididymis.
- A lamellated mass with concentric layering just cephalad to the left testis representing the coiled spermatic cord components forming the ‘whirlpool sign’ with twisting or whirling on color Doppler.
- Discrete punctate non-shadowing hyperechoic foci diffusely scattered throughout the testicular parenchyma bilaterally with comet tail artifacts.
- Left sided mild hydrocele with internal non-vascular septations.
- Thickening of the left hemiscrotal skin.
Remember:
- In case of incomplete testicular torsion, color Doppler may show vascularity within the testis.
- An increase in arterial RI of more than 0.75 & absence of intratesticular venous flow may help confirm testicular torsion.
- Clusters of testicular microliths may represent testicular tumor without soft tissue mass.
- Clusters of microliths adjacent to solid mass suggest a germ cell tumor.
