Objetive: To determine the clinical characteristics- ultrasound of patients treated for testicular torsion in two hospitals of Piura 2011-2018. Material and methods: Retrospective study, in the Department of Surgery of Urology service of Hospital II-2 Santa Rosa and Hospital José Cayetano Heredia, Piura, 2011-2018. Forty-four patients who had been diagnosed by testicular torsion were included, by census sampling, those who did not meet the selection criteria were excluded. The data were collected from the medical records of the department of Urology. The analysis was performed with percentages, averages, chi2, Student's test. Crude prevalence ratios (RPc) and adjusted (RPa) were calculated using generalized linear models, using Poisson, for bivariate and multivariate analysis. Results: At a general level, we found 44 cases diagnosed by testicular torsion between 2011 and 2018 in two hospitals in Piura; of these the years with the highest appearance were in 2012 with 18.2% (8 cases), followed by the year 2013 with 15.9% (7 cases). The average age was 14.2 years. The clinical characteristics of the patients treated for testicular torsion, which we found was a patient with testicular pain that represented 97.7% (43 cases); followed by testicular edema with 59.1% (26 cases); Thus, the increase in body temperature was the least observed with only 03 cases (6.8%). At the ultrasound level we found that hypoechogenicity was the most frequent with 29 cases (90.62%), followed by of increase in testicular volume with 28 cases (87.5%) and finally decrease in blood flow with 24 cases (75%). Conclusions: During the 2011-2018 period, 44 cases of testicular torsion were reported, of which the clinical features that most occurred were testicular pain and testicular edema; and at the level of Doppler ultrasonography, hypoechogenicity and increased testicular volume was the greatest found in the study.
