This a case report of an immunocompetent (HIV negative) 54 years old man who had been diagnosed with epididymo-testicular tuberculosis. This happened 13 years after he had suffered from pulmonary tuberculosis. The diagnosis was made after a testicular biopsy for infertility. The outcome of anti-tuberculosis treatment was good although the azoospermia lasted. The aim of this report is to emphasize that the genital tuberculosis still exists in our sub-region and that high index of suspicion is required with effective anti-tuberculous therapy in order to achieve good outcome.
这是一例免疫功能正常（HIV阴性）的54岁男性病例报告，该患者被诊断为附睾 - 睾丸结核。这发生在他患肺结核13年后。诊断是在因不育进行睾丸活检后做出的。尽管持续存在无精子症，但抗结核治疗效果良好。本报告的目的是强调生殖器结核在我们这个次区域仍然存在，并且需要高度怀疑并采用有效的抗结核治疗以取得良好效果。
