Abstract
Acute orchitis or a mass in testis usually evokes a neoplasm, a torsio n or infectious disease for the clinician. Rarely, a systemic disease is involved. Nethertheless, testicular involvement occurs during vascu litis, Behcet or granulomatous diseases, but is uncommonly the first m anifestation. Histologic changes after biopsy or orchiectomy usually g ive the diagnosis. Testicular localization of systemic disease does no t change the general treatment.
