Background: Testicular torsion leads to devastating consequences in young boys, about 42% undergo an Orchiectomy resulting in reduced fertility, testicular hormonal dysfunction and psychological trauma. Objective: The aim was to evaluate the testicular salvage rate after detorsion plus tunica albuginea incision with tunica vaginalis flap coverage with orchiopexy. Methods: This was an observational study conducted from January 2016 to December 2017. Data were collected from operation theater and surgery ward register. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 20 statistical software. Continuous data were presented as mean ± SD and categorical data were presented as percentage. Results: Total numbers of patients were 15. Most of the patients presented after 24 hours. Rate of atrophy of testis after orchiopexy was higher in patients presented after 24 hours. Only 4 patients had recognizable testicular atrophy. Surgical site infection was not present in this study. Conclusion: Tunica albuginea incision with tunica vaginalis flap coverage after detorsion with orchiopexy provides more salvage rate in the management of ischemic testis following torsion.

The normal male external genitalia include the testicles with the epididymis attached posteriorly and the vas deferens arising from this. This case describes an anatomical variation of this normal anatomy not previously reported in the literature. A 17-year-old boy presented with symptoms of intermittent testicular torsion and underwent scrotal exploration. On the left side there was a bell-clapper deformity with the epididymis separated into two parts with the lower pole high in the scrotum and attached to the tunica vaginalis. A normal vas deferens was seen to arise from the isolated lower pole of the epididymis. There was no connection between the vas deferens and the testis or upper pole of epidiymis. This case reminds us of the possibility of anatomical variations and the importance of keeping them in mind to prevent complications at time of surgery.
