Original report. Testicular torsion in neonates and infants: sonographic features in 30 patients.
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study was to illustrate the spectrum of sonographic findings in testicular torsion in a large series of neonates and infants. These patterns and their evolution have, to our knowledge, not been described previously.


CONCLUSIONS
The sonographic appearance of testicular torsion in neonates and infants can be divided into three types. We believe that the findings represent different stages in the evolution of testicular torsion.
