Wikipedia definition
2. Testicular torsionTesticular torsion occurs when the spermatic cord to a testicle twists, cutting off the blood supply (a condition called ischemia). The most common symptom is the rapid onset of acute testicular pain; the most common underlying cause is a congenital malformation known as a "bell-clapper deformity" wherein the testis is inadequately affixed of the spermatic cord allowing it to move too freely on its axis and become entangled.
