Tuberculous peritonitis post orchiectomy for testicular tuberculosis; a case report and literature review.

Tuberculous peritonitis, though rare, is a serious condition and its diagnosis is challenging due to nonspecific clinical symptoms and imaging findings. Likewise, tuberculous epididymo-orchitis is a clinical dilemma, as it often mimics testicular tumors. We report a case of a 62-year-old patient diagnosed to have TB peritonitis, following tuberculous epididymo-orchitis with review of the imaging features of both entities. A high index of suspicion and careful clinical assessment will help in early diagnosis and treatment of TB peritonitis, preventing potential complications. Moreover, testicular tuberculosis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of scrotal mass.
