Ultrasonography Findings of Testicular Tuberculosis in Nepalese Patients: A Case Series.
Extrapulmonary tuberculosis constitutes about 20% of all cases of tuberculosis. It involves organs other than the lungs, such as lymph nodes, the genitourinary tract, abdomen, skin, joints and bones, and meninges. Tuberculosis of the testis is a rare disease. The diagnosis of testicular tuberculosis could be confused with testicular cancer, sarcoidosis or metastases. Herein, we describe the ultrasonography of five patients with testicular tuberculosis. This case series highlights the importance of ultrasonography in the diagnosis of rare form of extra pulmonary tuberculosis.
