Abstract

Recurrent epididymo-orchitis is a rare condition in children. Considering that obstructive infravesical pathologies, such as posterior urethral valves, may cause recurring epididymo-orchitis in children, a thorough examination of the genito-urinary system will prove essential for the diagnosis and treatment of the main pathology. We herein present a case of posterior urethral valve presenting with recurrent episodes of epididymo-orchitis.

Özet

Tekrarlayan epididimo-orşit, çocuklarda nadir görülen bir durumdur. Posterior üretral valv gibi infravezikal obstrüksiyon nedenlerinin çocuklarda tekrarlayan epididimo-orşite neden olabileceği akılda tutularak yapılacak detaylı ürogenital sistem incelemesi, esas patolojinin tanısı ve tedavisi için önemlidir. Burada, tekrarlayan epididimo-orşit atakları ile bulgu veren bir posterior üretral valv olgusu sunulmuştur.
