PURPOSE: Management of neonatal testicular torsion (NTT) is controversial, with varied opinion regarding the merit(s) and role of "emergent" testicular exploration and/or contralateral orchidopexy of the healthy testis.
METHODS: A survey of consultant paediatric surgeons and urologists working in the United Kingdom and Ireland was conducted to ascertain views to guide best practice.
RESULTS: A total of 148 questionnaires were mailed, of which 110 were returned (74% response rate). Of these, 60 (54.5%) surgeons considered NTT secondary to torsion of the spermatic cord and 8 (7.2%) thought primary vascular infarction of the testis responsible. Twelve (10.9%) use Doppler ultrasound to guide management and exclude tumour. Eighty-two surgeons (74.5%) explore the scrotum, and 59 (71.9%) perform ipsilateral orchidectomy and contralateral orchidopexy of the "Работает" testis. Few surgeons undertake emergent exploration. Only 11 (10%) surgeons have ever found a viable testis. Seven (6.4%) cases of synchronous NTT were reported. Twenty-four (21.8%) surgeons do not perform contralateral orchidopexy with concerns of damaging a healthy testis. Orchidopexy is favoured by 89 surgeons, with 46 (52%) using nonabsorbable suture fixation and 28 (31.4%) creating a sutureless extradartos pouch. In boys later found to have a "solitary scrotal testis" and a contralateral testicular remnant, 38 (36.5%) of 104 would always "pex" the testis to avert anorchia.
CONCLUSIONS: Surgeons' opinions with NTT in the United Kingdom and Ireland remain diverse. Strong argument can be made for scrotal exploration with/without contralateral orchidopexy. Parents should be counselled on the merits of varied strategies to gain better understanding of the long-term outcomes for their male child.
