“…At the first available opportunity (at the Role 4 facility), microsurgical techniques, commonly utilised in male sub-fertility treatment, are used to retrieve viable sperm from the injured gonad. This approach was first described in two complex civilian trauma cases14 15 and it would appear particularly suited to testes exposed to the destructive effect of blast injury where longer-term spermatogenesis is highly questionable. Whilst some military authorities continue to champion testicular salvage,1 current UK experience with military casualties has enabled clinicians to use modern andrology techniques to focus on optimising future fertility potential rather than conservation of testes of doubtful future function.…”

Immediate surgical management of combat-related injury to the external genitalia

Patterns of survivable injury after combat injury have changed during recent years as wounding mechanisms have altered, ballistic protection has improved and the military chain of trauma care has evolved. Combat casualties now survive injuries that would have been fatal in previous wars and service personnel can be left with injuries that have significantly detrimental effects on their quality of life. Severe, destructive injuries to the external genitalia are rarely life-threatening, but can be profoundly life altering and the immediate management of these injuries deserves special scrutiny. The general principles of haemorrhage control, wound debridement, urinary diversion, and organ preservation should be observed. An up-to-date review of the management of these relative rare injuries is based on recent, albeit scanty literature and the experiences of managing casualties in the medical evacuation chain of the United Kingdom Defence Medical Services. The rationale behind the current emphasis on post-injury fertility preservation is also discussed.

“…The topic of fertility preservation in patients with testicular trauma is noteworthy, but a literature review did not reveal consistent data discussing sperm or testicular tissue cryopreservation in patients suffering from scrotal trauma, existing only sporadic case report 45. Cryopreservation of sperm and testicular tissue has been successfully implemented in millions of patients suffering from conditions affecting their reproductive future.…”

“…In such case, a successful TESE and a testicular revascularization were performed. More recently, Gadda et al 5. described a case of successful TESE performed during an emergency scrotal exploration in a 28-year-old man with a history of right orchiopexy for cryptorchidism presenting with blunt trauma of the pelvis.…”

Fertility preservation after bilateral severe testicular trauma

et al. 2014

Testicular trauma is a frequent acquired cause of infertility; being accidents, work injuries and sport activities that are the most common causes of testicular traumas. [1],[2] Strangely, the issue of management of serious testicular trauma and fertility preservation has not been studied extensively before, existing only sporadic reports in international literature. Besides, no guidelines exist on fertility preservation in cases of important scrotal trauma when injury may result in irreparable damage to all testicular tissue (torsion of a solitary testis, bilateral synchronous testicular torsion, and severe bilateral scrotal trauma). [3] The present case report describes the presentation of a young patient who experienced a motorbike accident with an irreparable damage to all testicular tissue in which preservation of fertility through immediate postoperative sperm cryopreservation was performed
