[Granulomatous orchitis].
Five cases of granulomatous orchitis are reported and the literature is reviewed. The clinical features, pathology and treatment of this rare disease are discussed. In four cases the clinical features were chronic, while one patient had an acute course. The average age of the five patients was 31 years. In all cases we found only one testes was affected. In two cases the affected testis was removed, and in the remaining three cases only partial orchiectomy was performed.
