Abstract

Unstable pelvis ring trauma can accompany urologic injuries such as bladder, ureter, or urethral injuries. In very rare cases, testicular dislocation can accompany a pelvic ring injury. Testicular dislocation causes pain, but can be regarded as the pain caused by pelvic ring injury. If not detected early, testicular dislocation may result in gangrenous testes. The authors report a case of pelvic ring injury with testicular dislocation.
