Objective:
To report one case of idiopathic granulomatous orchitis, an extremely rare disease, in a 76-year-old patient.

Conclusions:
The idiopathic granulomatous orchitis is an entity of unknown etiology, clinically or ultrasonographically not distinguishable from testicular neoplasias, the diagnosis of which is made after orchiectomy.
