Popis:	The xanthogranulomatosis orchiepididymititis is a benign and a rare disease. Its etiology is unknown. It creates diagnosis, therapeutic and etiological problems. The diagnosis is hardly made because of the variability of the clinical findings. The confusion is mainly made with a malignant tumor, and sometimes with a simple orchiepididymitis. Orchidectomy is usually performed. We report seven cases of orchiepididymitis characterized by their antibiotherapeutic resistance, the destruction of the testis which needed a surgical removal. The diagnosis is established after the histological study of the testis. The etiology is not yet known. The authors study the clinical evolution and therapeutic characteristics of our serial comparing with the literature data.
