Testicular ischemia and infarction following herniorrhaphy or varicocelectomy: evaluation by radionuclide imaging.
1989
: The postoperative use of testicular imaging to evaluate the preservation of testicular circulation has been reported after orchiopexy, excision of a hematocele, and repair of a traumatized tunica albuginea. The authors discuss the previously unreported use of testicular imaging in patients who have undergone recent herniorrhaphy or varicocelectomy. The scan of a patient with intact testicular perfusion following herniorrhaphy is compared to the scans of two patients with absence of perfusion of a testicle five to seven days following respective herniorrhaphy and varicocelectomy surgeries.
