摘要
Granulomatous and abscessing testicular inflammations are important differential diagnoses of testicular tumors. Infectious orchitis should always be considered in unclear testicular masses with negative tumor markers. We report the case of a 45-year-old man with abscessing orchitis due to early syphilis diagnosed after orchiectomy with the suspicion of a seminoma.
