One hundred and twenty-seven intravenous urograms of patients with acute epididymitis were evaluated during a period of 9 years. The majority of these patients had normal urograms. A tuberculous renal lesion was found in only one case. Twenty-seven patients had prostatic enlargement and 10 of these were under 50 years of age. Other abnormalities which were found were not related to epididymitis. It is suggested that intravenous urography is indicated in patients with acute epididymitis only when there is evidence of previous tuberculosis or when laboratory findings arouse suspicion of genitourinary tuberculosis.
