title: Neonatal paratesticular abscess mimicking perinatal torsion.
abstract: Management of perinatal torsion varies between centers from urgent surgical exploration and contralateral fixation to conservative nonoperative management. We present a case of paratesticular abscess in a neonate mimicking a perinatal torsion which may influence management of this condition in some cases.
