Objective: Tuberculous epididymis TB introduced as a colossal scrotal ulcer with scrotal sack inclusion is extraordinarily remarkable. The side effects of such ITE look like the epididymo-orchitis or dangerous tumor, which results in misdiagnosis or defer in conclusion. Methods: This study is a review information examination of 16 instances of histologically-affirmed epididymal tuberculosis in patients treated at IBN-SINA medical clinic from March 2015 to December 2022. Results: The age of the patients was normal around 42 years (range, 24-62 years); 5 patients (31.25%) had tuberculosis in the left epididymis, 7 patients (43.75%) had tuberculosis in the right epididymis and 4 patients (25%) had two-sided epididymal tuberculosis. Of the 16 patients, 3 patients (18.75%) had a past filled with tuberculosis, including 1 instance of pneumonic tuberculosis, 1 instances of renal tuberculosis and one instance of prostate tuberculosis. Conclusion: Epididymal tuberculosis is probably going to have attacked encompassing tissues when signs, for example, epididymal beaded changes and not well characterized epididymis-testis line are available. Careful treatment joined with preoperative and postoperative anti-tubercular treatment is a successful way to deal with treating this condition. Sperm retrieval and cryopreservation must be considered for potential intra-cytoplasmic sperm infusion.
