The Face of Testicular Pain

The screaming face that you see above you came from ultrasound images of the scrotum of a 45-year-old man , and was recently published in the journal Urology in an article entitled, “The Face of Testicular Pain: A Surprising Ultrasound Finding.”  

Authors Roberts and Touma noted:

While scrolling through the ultrasound images, the residents and staff alike were amazed to see the outline of a man’s face staring up out of the image, his mouth agape as if the face seen on the ultrasound scan itself was also experiencing severe pain.

A brief debate ensued on whether the image could have been a sign from a deity (perhaps Min the Egyptian god of male virility); however, the consensus deemed it a mere coincidental occurrence rather than a divine proclamation.

The testicle was removed and the screaming face tumor turned out to be benign.
