Scrotal hematoma, a rare complication of adrenal hemorrhage, may mimic testicular torsion, and a surgical approach is usually performed. Here, we present a case of scrotal hematoma determined during surgery for probable testis torsion. Ipsilateral adrenal hemorrhage was shown by abdominal ultrasonography during further evaluation. Adrenal and scrotal hemorrhage association should be kept in mind in acute testis pathologies in the newborn period. Anahtar Kelimeler : testis torsiyonu, skrotal kanama, adrenal kanama.
