Late Diagnosis of Isolated Testicular Tuberculosis

Urogenital tuberculosis is a rare condition, typically occurring following pulmonary involvement. Isolated testicular tuberculosis without urinary symptoms is even rarer and poses significant diagnostic challenges. We report a case of a 34-year-old patient diagnosed with testicular tuberculosis after undergoing an orchidectomy due to purulent testicular necrosis.Urogenital tuberculosis is a rare condition, typically occurring following pulmonary involvement.
