Testicular Sarcoidosis: Sonographic Findings

Abstract

Testicular sarcoidosis is a rare but benign entity. It is often mistaken for testicular neoplasm, leading to orchiectomy. It is, therefore, extremely important to identify and correctly diagnose testicular sarcoidosis on sonography to avoid unnecessary orchiectomy. This case study reports a young patient who had a prior history of unilateral orchiectomy for cryporchidism and presented with testicular lesions on the contralateral testis. He was later found to have skin lesions and chest symptoms that led to a diagnosis of sarcoidosis.
