Among them, 22 (25.6%) underwent orchiectomies and 64 (74.4%) underwent orchiopexies. The estimated incidence of testicular torsion was 3.5 per 100\u00a0000 person\u2010years. There are two peaks in the age\u2010specific incidence rates: the first in boys aged 10\u201314\u00a0years (at 7.7 per 100\u00a0000 person\u2010years) and the second in male infants aged &lt;1\u00a0year (at 7.6 per 100\u00a0000 person\u2010years).
