Abstract
A case of a pig stallion of the landrace breed, 6 years old and weighing 250 kg, is reported, which was attended by the outpatient clinical service of the Large Animal Medical-Surgical Clinic area of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine and Zootechnics from the University of Cordoba. The anamnesis indicates that the player presented redness in the left scrotal region, as well as a marked asymmetry between both testicles with a predominance of the left, pain and discomfort in previous days, for which punctures were performed with fluid withdrawal, but with recurrence later. Taking into account the remarkable severity of the event and the decrease in reproductive function, as well as the deterioration in the health and well-being of the animal, it was decided to perform a bilateral orchiectomy with scrotal resection. During the surgical procedure under general anesthesia, when the tunica albuginea was incised and the left testicle was completely exposed, a 720 ° torsion of the spermatic cord was evident, as well as an increase in size and blackish color, indicating ischemia and necrosis. The importance of knowing that in cases of testicular enlargement, torsion should be considered as a diagnostic option is concluded, as well as the blackish coloration of the organ as indicative of complete ischemia, which confirms a testicular torsion of more than 6 Hs, the minimum time reported in the literature to cause irreversible damage to the testicle.
