| Zusammenfassung: | We herein report a case of idiopathic testicular infarction. The patient was a 20-year-old man with the chief complaint of right testicular swelling and pain.

Surgical exploration did not reveal any torsion of the spermatic cord. Subsequently, right high orchiectomy was performed because of the risk of a testicular cancer. Histopathological examination revealed a hemorrhage and congestion of the testis and epididymis |
