[Testicular sarcoidosis].

We report a rare case of testicular sarcoidosis. A 68-year-old man was admitted for detailed examination of uveitis and swelling of the testes. A chest X-ray film and computed tomographic scans disclosed ground-glass shadows in the lower fields of both lungs with mediastinal lymphadenopathy. Ga scintigram showed pronounced accumulations in the testes, hilum, and mediastinum. Transbronchial lung and testicular biopsy specimens demonstrated noncaseating epithelioid granulomas, thus confirming the diagnosis of sarcoidosis with testicular involvement. The patient was followed up without systemic steroids. A review of the world literature found only 12 reported cases of clinically evident testicular sarcoidosis.
