Abstract

 It is generally agreed that tuberculosis of the epididymis is secondary to tuberculosis of the genitourinary tract. We report on a case of isolated tuberculosis of the epididymis in the absence of obvious renal, bladder or prostatic involvement.

Keywords: Epididymo-Orchitis; Tubercular Epididymitis; Biopsy; Histopathological Examination.
