TB or not TB?: a case of isolated testicular TB with scrotal involvement.

A Bhargava1, C Davenport, N Gibbons, S McConkey.   

Abstract

Despite the genitourinary tract being the most common site affected by extrapulmonary TB, isolated testicular TB remains a rare clinical entity. In patients with co-morbidities such as hepatic impairment, treatment proves a challenge, as first-line hepatotoxic pharmaceuticals are contraindicated. Here, we report a case of isolated testicular TB with scrotal involvement, on a background of hepatic dysfunction.
