Testicular infarction in a 12-year-old boy with Wegener's granulomatosis.
We present the case of a 12-year-old boy with testicular infarction secondary to Wegener's granulomatosis. Scrotal exploration revealed no evidence of testicular torsion. The testis was left in place, and, after systemic therapy, partial reperfusion was present.
