Testicular torsion is a common entity in adolescent males with trauma-induced testicular torsion reported incidence to be around 4-8 %. A 24-year-old boy presented to us with a history of trauma 10 days earlier with right-sided testicular pain. USG shows no flow in right testis though clinically does not look like. 1 Orchidectomy was done. The message is clear that testicular torsion can be due to trauma and the patient should approach the clinician as early as possible.
