Abstract
-
We experienced a case of tuberculous epididymitis in 3-year-old boy who presented with a chief complaint of right scrotal swelling without evidences of tuberculosis of other organs. Physical examination revealed bilateral epididymal induration and beaded vas with another firm and tender nodule on right epididymal tail. During anti-Tbc chemotherapy, right scrotal draining sinus developed and so right epididymectomy was performed. Tuberculous epididymitis was confirmed pathologically.
