, originally identified in 1988, is a coagulase negative staphylococcus (CNS) that has become a significant human pathogen. It has been found as a source of skin and soft tissue infection, endocarditis, urogenital tract infection, joint infection, and meningeal infection. Rarely, it manifests as scrotal infections or complications. Correct identification of the bacterial organism and prompt treatment is crucial in these cases, as delayed intervention can lead to complications requiring orchiectomy. We describe a rare case of a young male who presented with scrotal pain and swelling and was found to have epididymo-orchitis with scrotal pyocele on imaging. He underwent scrotal exploration with incision and drainage and did not require an orchiectomy. Wound cultures grew , and the patient clinically improved after being treated with appropriate antibiotics. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of scrotal abscess and epididymo-orchitis with pyocele formation caused by
最初于1988年被鉴定出来，是一种凝固酶阴性葡萄球菌（CNS），已成为一种重要的人类病原体。它已被发现是皮肤和软组织感染、心内膜炎、泌尿生殖道感染、关节感染和脑膜感染的来源。很少见的是，它表现为阴囊感染或并发症。在这些病例中，正确识别细菌病原体并及时治疗至关重要，因为延迟干预可能导致需要进行睾丸切除术的并发症。我们描述了一例罕见病例，一名年轻男性出现阴囊疼痛和肿胀，影像学检查发现患有附睾炎伴阴囊积脓。他接受了阴囊探查、切开引流，不需要进行睾丸切除术。伤口培养物培养出了……，患者在接受适当抗生素治疗后临床症状改善。据我们所知，这是首例由……引起的阴囊脓肿、附睾炎伴积脓形成的报道病例。
