Abstract

Acute scrotum is defined as acute painful swelling of the scrotum and its contents accom-panied by local signs and general symptoms inc-luding spermatic cord torsion, torsion of apendi-cular appendage, epididymo-orchitis and trauma. In this case, we report a 17 years old boy with Duchenne muscular dystrofia (DMD) attended the emergency service with scrotal pain. Extre-mely rarely, the patient have testicular torsion with 7 times rotated testis contrary to expectati-ons.  Although the data is inadequate, muscular dystrofia may cause torsion because of effecting muscle tissue that takes apart of torsion etiology.

 Key Words: Testicular Torsion, Duchenne muscular dystrofia , Acute scrotum
