Abstract
A case is reported of absent testis in a boy of 7 months who was noted to have a cystic intra-abdominal mass at 18-19-week prenatal ultrasou nd scan. This is the second report of prenatally detected testicular t orsion, the previous case being noted much later in pregnancy. On both occasions, the diagnosis was only established after birth.
