[Urological causes of groin pain].

Abstract

In addition to muscular and general surgical issues, groin pain in men can also be caused by various urological diseases. Emergencies include testicular torsion, renal colic, or epididymitis, while longer symptom durations may be associated with varicoceles, spermatoceles, or hydroceles. Treatment of urological groin pain depends on the underlying condition and includes both conservative and surgical measures. Testicular torsion and renal colic, in particular, are urological emergencies that require prompt action.
