27 cases of torsion of the testis in the newborn among 46 operations for torsion of the spermatic cord in childhood are reported. Usually torsions were extravaginal and orchidectomy for advanced necrosis was necessary in 22 cases. Authors comment on predisposing factors which produce a torsion of the testis in the newborn. The aetiology is unclear. Pathology of the specimens of orchidectomy as well as the final atrophy of several of the conserved testis demonstrate that excision is probably indicated even with an early diagnosis, which is essential.
本文报告了46例儿童精索扭转手术中的27例新生儿睾丸扭转病例。通常扭转为鞘膜外扭转，22例因晚期坏死而行睾丸切除术。作者对新生儿睾丸扭转的易感因素进行了评论。病因尚不清楚。睾丸切除标本的病理学以及部分保留睾丸的最终萎缩表明，即使早期诊断，切除睾丸可能也是必要的，而早期诊断至关重要。
