title: [A case report of epididymo-testicular bilharziasis in a child].
abstract: The disease was revealed by a tumor of the left testis. Ultrasound showed an enlargement of testis and epididymis with some hypoechogenic areas resembling epididymo-orchitis or tumor. The location of bilharzial lesions in the testis is very rare. The main sign of urogenital bilharziosis, hematuria, was present. Orchidectomy is the treatment of choice when the testis is destroyed and only histological study is able to confirm the nature of testicular mass.
