Abstract
Recurrent epididymo-orchitis is a rare condition in children. Considering that obstructive infravesical pathologies, such as posterior urethral valves, may cause recurring epididymo-orchitis in children, a thorough examination of the genito-urinary system will prove essential for the diagnosis and treatment of the main pathology. We herein present a case of posterior urethral valve presenting with recurrent episodes of epididymo-orchitis.
