Abstract

We report two cases of bilateral epididymocutaneous fistulae which is a very rare presentation of tubercular epididymitis. Epididymis is the commonest structure affected by tuberculosis in male genital tract. The diagnosis of tubercular epididymitis can be made with Ultrasonography and FNAC. Antitubercular drugs are effective and avoid unnecessary surgical interventions.
