[Epididymitis: Unusual presentation of periarteritis nodosa].
Epididymotesticular manifestations are a very rare mode of revelation of periarteritis nodosa. We report a case of a patient where the diagnosis of periarteritis nodosa was made on the histological analysis of a part of epididymectomy. Through this observation, we will discuss the diagnostic difficulties of periarteritis nodosa.
