Understanding Delays in Testicular Torsion Treatment for Teens
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study looks back at teenagers who had surgery for testicular torsion (a twisted testicle) to understand why some waited longer than others before getting help. Learning about these delays may help doctors and families recognize this emergency faster in the future.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had surgery for testicular torsion between 2020 and 2025 at Hôpitaux Civils de Colmar hospital
- You were between 10 and 17 years old when you came to the emergency room
- You and your parent(s) or guardian(s) agree to let the hospital use your medical records for this research
- You and your family can read and understand French
- Your medical records have enough information to include in the study

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests whether ultrasound done in the emergency room can better diagnose testicular torsion, a painful twisting of the testicle that can cause lasting damage. If the ultrasound works well, it could lead to faster and more accurate treatment.
This study uses a computer program to help doctors read ultrasound images of the scrotum to spot a condition called testicular appendix torsion (twisting of a small piece of tissue near the testicle). It may help diagnose this painful condition more quickly and accurately in young people.
This study uses a special light sensor to check blood flow in the testicles of boys who come to the ER with sudden scrotal pain. It aims to see if this painless device can help doctors tell if the testicle is twisted (a medical emergency) without needing an operation right away.
This study checks how well a scoring tool (TWIST) can tell if testicular torsion is likely in adults with sudden scrotal pain. If you have sudden pain in your scrotum, you may be eligible to help test this tool in the emergency room.
This is an observational study that follows people who receive silicone gel-filled testicular implants. It aims to collect real-world information about safety and healing to help improve future care.
This trial tests if a special ultrasound with contrast dye can better diagnose ovarian torsion (twisted ovary). It may help women get faster, more accurate treatment.
