Strain elastography for fertility assessment after pediatric testicular torsion: A long-term follow-up study

INTRODUCTION: Testicular torsion (TT) is a urological emergency characterized by the twisting of the spermatic cord, leading to ischemia and potential testicular damage. If not treated promptly, TT can result in testicular atrophy and infertility. While early surgical intervention restores blood flow, the long-term impact on fertility remains a concern. This study investigates the role of strain elastography (SE) and testicular volume …
