Resumo

Testicular torsion(TT) with unsalvageable testis has a significant psychosocial impact. Orchiectomy can be performed with optional testicular prosthesis(TP) placement, commonly deferred(dTP). Orchiectomy and simultaneous testicular prosthesis placement(sTP) may be a feasible and safe option and has been implemented in our department since 2018.
