Predictive value of hematologic parameters and <scp>HALP</scp> score for testicular viability in adults with testicular torsion: A multicentric study
This study demonstrates that heterogeneous echotexture on ultrasound and longer duration of torsion seem to be independent risk factors for testicular necrosis after testicular torsion in adults. However, neither haematologic parameters nor HALP score provided valuable information for testicular viability before scrotal exploration in our series.
