Granulomatous orchitis is a rare inflammatory disease of poorly understood etiology. Its differentiation from testicular tumor is difficult and is resistant to antibiotic therapy. Five cases of this disease are reported. In 3 of them orchiectomy was performed and in 2 the testis was preserved after biopsy specimen examination. Relapses or injury to the contralateral testis were not recorded during the follow-up period. A review of the literature is made and the etiopathogenesis, clinical and therapeutic aspects of this disease are discussed.
肉芽肿性睾丸炎是一种病因不明的罕见炎症性疾病。它与睾丸肿瘤难以鉴别,且对抗生素治疗耐药。本文报告了5例该疾病。其中3例行睾丸切除术,2例在活检标本检查后保留了睾丸。随访期间未记录到复发或对侧睾丸损伤。本文对文献进行了综述,并讨论了该疾病的病因发病机制、临床及治疗方面的问题。
