Therapy questionably infarcted testis.
Observations made upon dogs and humans with apparent infarction of the testis secondary to torsion of the spermatic cord suggest that the treatment of choice for questionably viable testis is detorsion of the cord, replacement of the testis in its hemiscrotum, and fixation of the opposite testis. This form of therapy may be applicable to all "torsed testes" regardless of viability.
