This study aims to explore the theoretical method and clinical application of manipulation reduction for testicular torsion. A total of 28 patients with testicular torsion were recruited from the Emergency Surgery Department of Beijing Children's Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University from July 2016 to July 2018. Among these patients, 22 patients (age: 10.80 ± 3.50 years old) were treated with manual reduction using the elastic retraction method and push-and-turn method. Observation indexes included dramatically alleviated or completely disappeared pain without general anesthesia; the spermatic cord being smooth and unknotted; the restoration of the suffered testis to normal anatomical position under ultrasonography monitoring; blood flow signals increased in the affected testis and epididymis, which was regarded as the main sign of a successful reduction. Among the 22 cases who received manual reduction, 19 patients were successfully treated (left side: n = 11, right side: n = 8) with a total success rate of 86.36%. The other three cases showed either incomplete (n = 2) or failed (n = 1) reposition. Among the 19 patients who were successfully treated by manual reduction, 2 of them did not undergo prophylactic orchiopexy, and no abnormalities were found during the follow-up. The reduction of testicular torsion using the elastic retraction method and push-and-turn method may improve the success rate of the manual reduction of testicular torsion, especially for incomplete testicular torsion. Furthermore, manual reduction may help increase the rate of testicular salvage in a timely manner before emergency surgery. Hence, this skill should be extended to primary hospitals to reduce the possibility of testectomy caused by testicular torsion.
