Abstract

In a sixty years old patient with left epididymitis and left hydrocele testis, trichomonas vaginalis was detected three times in sequence from the fluid of hydrocele testis. In the same case trichomonas vaginalis was also detected eleven times from the urine. Although it is doubtful that trichomonas vaginalis is the direct cause of epididymitis and hydrocele testis, we report our observations because it is a very rare case.
