NCT ID NCT07554313

First seen May 04, 2026 · Last updated May 04, 2026

Summary

This study looks at why teenage boys with testicular torsion wait more than 6 hours before going to the hospital. Researchers will survey 150 teens aged 10-18 who had surgery for this condition between 2020 and 2025. The goal is to find out what barriers—like embarrassment, fear, or not knowing the symptoms—cause delays, so doctors can better educate young people and families.
