AB Scrotal  pain  is  one  of  the  most  common  urologic  emergencies  seen  in  boys.  Although  many  causes  of  scrotal  pain  may  not  require  an  immediate  organ-preserving  procedure,  some  causes  can  lead  to  rapid  and  permanent  loss  of  testicular  function  without  timely  intervention.  Thus,  the  clinician  must  identify  patients  who  need  emergent  diagnostic  and/or  therapeutic  procedures  and  those  who  need  observation  and  reassurance.
