Abstract
We present a 21 years-old patient with congenital monorchism, diagnosed and emergency operated for testicular torsion. In combination, testicular torsion and monorchism represent an extremely rare finding. In any case of monorchism, testicular sparing surgery is one of the main goals, and that is why fast and accurate diagnosis is mandatory, since delayed diagnosis lead to loss of only gonade.
