To distinguish the prognostic factors that decrease the probability of a negative exploration for "acute scrotum." In some institutes, patients with "acute scrotum" undergo immediate exploration after clinical evaluation. Because testicular torsion (TT) accounts only for a fraction of these cases, most infants can be treated conservatively.

Clinical predictors of testicular torsion in children.

Impalement injuries are uncommon, especially in the pediatric population. Because of the rarity of these injuries, physicians may have difficulty recognizing and treating impalement injuries appropriately. Clinical findings are sometimes innocuous, but can be life threatening. Therefore, evaluation of suspected impalement injury should involve careful history and thorough physical examination, even if there is no evidence of trauma to the perineum. We report a very rare case of rectum perforation after transanal introduction of a broomstick with almost no clinical findings. Impalement injuries are difficult to recognize, and severity may not be reflected by their external appearance. To diagnose these injuries in time, it is important to use a well-organized workup.

Rectum perforation after broomstick impalement in a 17-year-old: case report and review.

To identify the signs that can help to differentiate torsion of the appendix testis (AT) and epididymitis and to establish the incidence of the various pathologic entities in boys with an acute scrotum.

Differentiation of epididymitis and appendix testis torsion by clinical and ultrasound signs in children.

Concomitant bilateral adnexal entanglement in a 7-year-old girl with precocious puberty.

To identify the factors that facilitate the diagnosis of pediatric appendicitis.
