Intravenous urography as a routine investigation in epididymitis.
One hundred and forty-two patients were admitted to the Jordan University Hospital with acute epididymitis between 1973 and 1983. Sixty-five had intravenous urograms which revealed renal tuberculosis in 1 patient, renal or ureteric stones in 10, bladder neck obstruction in 3, unrelated congenital anomalies in 10 and no abnormalities in 41. Twelve patients developed epididymal abscesses.
