Abstract: We recently encountered a very rare case of torsion of an intrascrotal testicular tumor in a 26-year-old male. Unlike the intra-abdominal undescended testis, intrascrotal spermatic cord torsion associated with a testicular tumor has rarely been reported. We write to report a case of intrascrotal spermatic cord torsion accompanied by a testicular tumor that had been overlooked preoperatively.
