title: Isolated necrotizing granulomatous vasculitis of the spermatic cords.
abstract: Isolated necrotizing granulomatous vasculitis of the spermatic cord has not been described during the last 20 years. We report clinical, laboratory and histopathological features of an instance of contralaterally recurrent lesions of this type in a young photographic laboratory technician. Although to date the disease is considered to be isolated, it may well be a systemic one without yet obvious signs.
