The Singapore Medical Council (SMC) has suspended Dr Yeo Khee Hong, a veteran doctor with 42 years of experience, for one year due to professional misconduct. This suspension follows a misdiagnosis in 2019 that resulted in a teenage patient losing his testicle.
Testicular torsion is a critical medical condition that demands immediate attention. This urological emergency occurs when the spermatic cord, which supplies blood to the testicle, becomes twisted, cutting off blood flow and causing acute symptoms. Its sudden and severe nature, coupled with the high risk of permanent damage or loss of the testicle, makes understanding and quick response to this condition vital. This article delves further into this condition. The article is guest written by Dr Edwin Ong, Medical Director of RMDY Clinic.
