| Popis: |
Tuberculosis (TB) remains a significant health concern, with this study focusing on tuberculous epididymo-orchitis. Genitourinary TB (GUTB) diagnosis is difficult using conventional methods like acid-fast staining, culture, and PCR. A case study involves a 22-year-old HIV-diagnosed male with a painless progressive testicular swelling. A radical orchidectomy revealed isolated tuberculosis epididymo-orchitis. The study emphasizes considering this diagnosis for testicular masses, recognizing the diagnostic complexity and potential need for surgical intervention in cases of ambiguity. |
