Testicular torsion | don't go getting your knickers in a knot

With special guest - Dr. Emily Mogridge, surgical resident. 

Testicular torsion is a surgical emergency - a torted testicle is only viable for 4-6 hours, before the viability drops dramatically. The most common cause is the bellclapper deformity, where the testicle is not fixed properly within the scrotum.
