| BACKGROUND: This experimental study aimed to evaluate the potential protective effects of lidocaine on ischemia-reperfusion injury resulting from testicular torsion/detorsion in rats. METHODS: A total of 18 male rats were randomized into three groups. Group 1 served as the control group. Group 2 was designed to evaluate testicular ischemia-reperfusion injury using a torsion/detorsion model. In Group 3, the treatment group, a similar ischemia- reperfusion model was used as in Group 2. Additionally, lidocaine at a dose of 15 mg/kg was administered intraperitoneally five minutes before reperfusion. Blood biochemical analyses and testicular histopathological evaluations were conducted. RESULTS: Blood biochemical analysis showed that malondialdehyde (MDA) and protein carbonyl (PC) levels were significantly higher in Group 2 compared to the other groups (p<0.001 and p=0.008, respectively). Proinflammatory cytokine levels, including interleu- kin-1 (IL-1), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), were lower in Group 3 than in Group 2 (p<0.001, p=0.007, and p=0.026, respectively). Antioxidant enzyme activities, including glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and superoxide dis- mutase (SOD), were higher in Group 3 compared to Group 2 (p=0.005 and p=0.025, respectively). Histopathological evaluations revealed significant improvements in all testicular damage scores, including hemorrhage, edema, vasocongestion, and inflammation in Group 3 compared to Group 2 (p=0.015, p=0.035, p=0.015, and p=0.034, respectively). Additionally, there was a notable improvement in the Johnsen score in Group 3 compared to Group 2 (p=0.034). CONCLUSION: Lidocaine, an effective local anesthetic, significantly alleviates the effects of testicular ischemia-reperfusion injury. |
