A member asked:
Can testicular torsion happen again after bilateral orchiopexy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is possible: Unfortunately it is still possible to get a testicular torsion following an orchiopexy procedure. If you are having pain in your testicles I would see a Dr right away to be safe!
