Acute testicular pain: right spermatic vein thrombosis. A case report

One of the rare reasons for acute testicular pain is spermatic vein thrombosis. In the literature, the right side is much less involved than the left side. We report a case of a common symptom with a rare clinical feature. A 28-year-old man presented with acute testicular pain and swelling. Ultrasonography (US) showed focal venous thrombus at the level of the internal ring. The symptoms were resolved after anti-inflammatory therapy, but thrombosis was not. Due to the uncommon existence of spermatic vein thrombosis, the emergency department should be aware of misdiagnosis and the right therapy modalities.
