Abstract
We report a case of a 1-day-old male newborn with neonatal testicular torsion, in whom an immediate orchiectomy with prophylactic orchidopexy under caudal regional anesthesia was practiced. The aim of this report is to propose early surgical intervention with caudal regional anesthesia as an alternative in order to avoid possible side effects related to general anesthesia and the complications related to a missed asynchronous torsion of the contralateral testis.
