ABSTRACT
A clinical observation was undertaken on 7 cases of epididymal tuberculosis mimicking the symptoms and signs of acute epididymitis and 24 cases of all tuberculous epididymitis which were seen during the period from September 1983 to July 1987. The results obtained were as follows. 1. A total of 7 cases of epididymal tuberculosis mimicking the symptoms and signs of acute epididymitis corresponds to 29% of epididymal tuberculosis(24 cases). 2. The highest occurrence was observed in the age of 30 to 39(5 cases). 3. Lateralization showed 5 cases in the right, 2 cases in the left and none in both. 4. Presenting symptoms and signs were painful scrotal swelling in all 7 cases, fever 4 cases, tender epididymal nodule 4 cases and local heating 2 cases but beading of vas and scrotal fistula was not found. 5.
