Abstract
Undescended testes, while common, are not without their risks. Although orchiopexy is typically recommended around 12 months of age to mitigate the risk of testicular tumors and infertility, some cases present unique challenges. Take for instance the case we recently encountered: a patient presented with and intra-abdominal mass and changes of torsion stemming from a right testicular seminoma in the abdomen. While intra-abdominal testicular seminomas have been documented, instances of Torsion and hemorrhagic shock due to tumor rupture are exceptionally rare. This underscores the importance of ongoing monitoring and awareness of potential complications, even after corrective procedures like orchiopexy.
