Abstract:
Xanthogranulomatous epididymo-orchitis is an extremely rare diagnostic entity presenting as ascrotal mass with or without pain. Rarely, it can affect prostate, epididymis, and testicle. It canmimic a testicular malignancy both clinically as well as radiologically, hence, careful pathologicalexamination and biomarker study are essential to rule out malignancy. We report a case of 50 yearsold male with increasing right testicular swelling with a discharging pus. Skin over scrotum wasgangrenous. Right orchidectomy was performed. Histopathological diagnosis revealed features ofxanthogranulomatous epididymo-orchitis with no evidence of malignancy. IHC markers for tumorwere negative.
