AbstractExtra vaginal Torsion of the testicles is typically seen in neonates. This condition is extremely rare in adolescents. We report two cases of delayed extra vaginal torsion in two adolescent brothers, without any obvious predispose field as gubernacular or bell clapper abnormalities. Following the diagnosis of acute scrotal condition, surgical ex-ploration was performed. The left testis of both patients were affected and after a tor-sion length ranged from 4 and 5 days, presented with blue color gangrened testis that twitched with vaginal tunica. Left orchidectomy, along with a fixation of right tunica vaginalis to Dartos tunica were carried out in both cases.en
