Role of Ultrasonography for Testicular Injuries in Penetrating Scrotal Trauma.

Objective: To review our 12-year experience with penetrating scrotal trauma in civilians and to evaluate the diagnostic utility of scrotal ultrasound prior to operative intervention.

Materials And Methods: We retrospectively studied all patients who had sustained penetrating scrotal trauma between 2002 and 2014. Charts were reviewed for demographic data, mechanism of injury, scrotal ultrasound findings, patient treatment, and outcomes.
