Video Summary
A musculoskeletal radiology fellow at Stanford discusses a 20-year-old with testicular trauma following a hockey injury. Testicular ultrasound is used to identify rupture. The injured left testicle exhibits a heterogeneous parenchyma and disrupted tunica albuginea, indicating rupture, alongside extra-testicular hematoma. An 18-year-old patient with similar symptoms shows testicular rupture features like heterogeneous texture and a fractured tunica albuginea. Differentials for testicular trauma include fracture, contusion, or hematoma, distinguished by specific ultrasound patterns. However, key to diagnosing rupture is identifying tunica albuginea disruption, possibly with contour irregularity and heterogeneity in testicular texture.
