- Abstract
This article is an editorial comment on a study conducted in Shenzhen, China, which aimed to predict risk factors for testicular salvage after testicular torsion in children. Testicular torsion is a condition that can lead to testicular necrosis if not treated promptly. The study analyzed ultrasound findings and blood markers, including monocyte count, to create a nomogram for predicting testicular salvage. However, the study's findings may not be applicable to populations with higher testicular preservation rates, and further validation using data from other countries is needed.
