Abstrakt: Polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) frequently affects the testis and epididymis. We describe a 29-year-old man with isolated PAN of the testis and review reported cases of isolated PAN of the testis or epididymis. Our patient underwent orchiectomy and at followup 17 months later was without evidence of recurrence or development of systemic PAN.
