[Right spermatic vein thrombosis. Revision of literature regarding a specific case].

Acute thrombophlebitis of spermatic vein is an unusual pathology involving, in most of the cases, the left side, and whose etiology remains uncertain. Most of them are found during a a differential diagnosis in acute testicular pain. We introduce the case of a 29 years old male with abusive cocaine consumption, admitted to hospital due to severe testicular pain. Doppler-ultrasound examination was undertaken, showing right spermatic vein flux alteration. Conservative management was decided and anticoagulant and non-esteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs were started. Eco-doppler is the most specific and sensible technique for diagnosis of these cases, while TC can always confirm etiologic diagnosis. Treatment was initially conservative based on anticoagulation. Hematological study is necessary in order to determine coagulation alterations.
