Strangulation of the scrotum.
A man presented to our department showed scrotal swelling and beginning priapism due to a ball bearing ring. The patient had passed his scrotum through the metal ring eight years before. Now he has observed an increasing swelling for seven days. The condition had to be treated operatively.
