Beneficial Effect of Nifedipine on Testicular Torsion-detorsion Injury in Rats

These results suggest that biochemical and histological torsion-detorsion injury occurs in the ipsilateral testes after a 3-hour torsion and 3-hour detorsion and that administration of nifedipine before detorsion prevents ischemia/reperfusion cellular damage in the testicular tissue.
