Intra-abdominal testicular torsion is a rare event. We report hereby our experience of the management of a spermatic cord twist on intra-abdominal testis discovered during an acute surgical abdomen. <jats:italic>Case Presentation<\/jats:italic>. This was a 42-year-old patient admitted to the emergency department for abdominal pain that had been evolving for a week. The physical examination showed tenderness and guarding in the left iliac fossa with an empty ipsilateral hemiscrotum. Complementary examinations led to the discovery of an intra-abdominal left-lateral mass. The laparotomy found a whitish mass with areas of infarction, which was resected. Anatomopathological examination of the operative specimen identified it as a testis with atrophy of germ cells and necrotic areas without evidence of malignancy. <jats:italic>Conclusion<\/jats:italic>. Intra-abdominal testicular torsion should be considered in case of patients with an acute surgical abdomen with vacuity of one of the bursae.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2019\/5815036","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,12,28]],"date-time":"2019-12-28T18:31:06Z","timestamp":1577557866000},"page":"1-3","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Acute
