Testicular trauma resulting in spermatic vessel thrombosis and testicular loss:  a case report.
Testicular ischemia is typically seen with cases of testicular torsion.  Twisting of the spermatic cord and compromise of testicular blood supply can induce testicular loss if not promptly discovered and treated.  Non-torsion causes of testicular ischemia are uncommon with rare citations in the literature.  Herein, we present a case of testicular ischemia induced by traumatic thrombosis of the spermatic vessels.
