Abstract27 patients were studied with real-time ultrasound following severe scrotal trauma. 22 (81.5%) had ultrasound features of scrotal trauma and, of these, five (18.5%) had signs of testicular rupture. Four of these five patients underwent surgery following ultrasound. This confirmed the diagnosis of rupture and the tests were repaired. Ultrasound should be offered to all patients presenting with scrotal trauma to select patients with testicular rupture for surgery.
