Pediatric Epididymitis With Atypical Evolution
Testicular necrosis is an exceedingly uncommon but serious complication of AOE in children. Persistent pain, increasing testicular size, or poor clinical response should prompt early Doppler reassessment and consideration of surgical exploration. Recognition of TCS as a possible pathophysiological mechanism may help guide timely diagnosis and intervention to prevent irreversible ischemic injury.
