title: Torsion of bilobed testis and biopsy-proven ipsilateral supernumerary testis in an adolescent.
abstract: Testicular torsion in patients with polyorchidism is rare, with less than 20 cases being reported. Bilobed testis has only been reported once in the literature to date. We report an interesting case of polyorchidism with torsion of an ipsilateral bilobed testis. The abnormal looking bilobed infarcted testis was removed, but the smaller viable supernumerary testis was biopsied and preserved.
