Abstract
Although age, injury severity score, hospital stay, intensive care unit stay and days of ventilator support are similar for patients who underwent orchiectomy vs testicular repair, the orchiectomy rate was higher for uninsured and black patients. Further studies are needed to elucidate the reasons for this disparity. Standardized protocols to manage testicular injury may decrease these disparities.
