Testicular torsion following orchiopexy.
A case of testicular torsion one year after orchiopexy is presented. The occurrence of testicular torsion following surgery is a rare event which has the potential for diagnostic misadventures.

Thirteen reported patients with testicular torsion following orchiopexy are presented and discussed.
