Abstract

A study of 84 patients who were diagnosed with epididymo-orchitis between July 1987 and September 1993 is presented. Brucellosis was a complication in 14 cases (17%). All 14 cases had elevated agglutination titers. Brucella blood culture was found to be positive in 4 of 14 cases (28.5%). Standard therapy regime (streptomycin plus tetracycline) was effective in 13 of 14 (93%) cases.
