A patient with acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) who presented with right testicular swelling is described. Sonography demonstrated diffuse enlargement and inhomogeneity of the testicle with central hypoechoic areas. Testicular abscesses were seen at surgery and Mycobacterium tuberculosis was cultured from the surgical specimen. Tuberculosis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of testicular enlargement or abscess formation in AIDS.
本文描述了一名获得性免疫缺陷综合征(艾滋病)患者,其表现为右侧睾丸肿大。超声检查显示睾丸弥漫性增大且不均匀,中央有低回声区。手术中发现睾丸脓肿,手术标本培养出结核分枝杆菌。在艾滋病患者睾丸肿大或脓肿形成的鉴别诊断中应考虑结核病。
