The ninth pediatric case of type B Hemophilus influenzae epididymo-orchitis is reported and the literature is reviewed. This is a manifestation of systemic infection and these children often are toxic at presentation. Scrotal fluid cultures may be sterile if inappropriate culture media are used. The urinary tract is not the primary source of infection and radiographic correlation has not proved to be valuable. Antibiotic therapy may need to be prolonged in selected cases. Testicular atrophy has not been noted in these children at followup.
报告了第9例B型流感嗜血杆菌附睾炎-睾丸炎儿科病例，并对相关文献进行了综述。这是全身感染的一种表现，这些患儿就诊时往往病情严重。如果使用不合适的培养基，阴囊液培养可能无菌。尿路不是主要感染源，影像学相关性检查尚未证明有价值。在某些病例中，抗生素治疗可能需要延长。随访中未发现这些患儿出现睾丸萎缩。
