Predictors of testicular salvage failure in pediatric testicular torsion: a retrospective analysis of clinical and imaging risk factors
These findings highlight duration of onset, degree of TT, ultrasound characteristics (vascularity loss and heterogeneous echotexture), and systemic inflammatory markers (PLR) as key preoperative indicators of testicular viability. The proposed nomogram serves as an evidence-based tool to guide intraoperative decisions on testicular preservation or resection.
