Tuberculosis (TB) of the genitourinary system is a rare form of extrapulmonary TB. Testicular TB is particularly uncommon among kidney transplantation (KT) recipients. Diagnosing testicular TB is challenging due to the nonspecific nature of clinical presentations and ambiguous imaging results. In this report, we describe a case involving a 36-year-old male KT recipient who presented with left scrotal pain. He had undergone a living donor KT 8 years prior and was receiving tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil, and prednisolone. Laboratory tests revealed anemia, leukocytosis, and elevated inflammatory markers. Computed tomography showed left scrotal wall thickening and enlargement, suggestive of a left testicular abscess. We discontinued mycophenolate mofetil and administered intravenous antibiotics. Additionally, we performed an incision and drainage of the abscess. However, there was no improvement in his clinical course. Consequently, we performed a radical left orchiectomy. The biopsy revealed extensive chronic granulomatous inflammation with caseous necrosis, consistent with tuberculous orchiepididymitis. A quadruple anti-TB regimen was administered, leading to an improvement in the patient's condition. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of testicular TB without other organ involvement in KT recipients. Including testicular TB in the differential diagnosis of testicular infections and masses is necessary to avoid unnecessary surgical procedures.
