Traumatic dislocation of the testis is a rare clinical presentation that occurs most commonly as a result of a blunt scrotal injury. An early diagnosis and subsequent surgical management is of utmost importance for normal spermatogenesis and to prevent the risk of orchidectomy. We are reporting here, a unilateral dislocation of the testis into the crural position in a patient, which was caused by blunt trauma following a fall from height, which was managed by open surgical reduction and orchidopexy. This case has been reported for its rarity.
