    This case study details bilateral scrotal masses in a diabetic man, complicated by bilateral epididymitis and abscess formation. It highlights a rare presentation of infection in the scrotum for diabetic patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Diabetology
    • Infectious Diseases

    Background:

    • Diabetes mellitus is associated with an increased risk of infections.
    • Scrotal masses can arise from various pathologies, including infectious processes.

    Observation:

    • A diabetic male presented with bilateral scrotal masses.
    • Physical examination revealed bilateral epididymitis and palpable scrotal swelling.

    Findings:

    • Imaging confirmed bilateral scrotal masses consistent with abscess formation.
    • Cultures identified the causative organism of the epididymitis and abscess.

    Implications:

    • This case underscores the importance of considering infectious etiologies, such as epididymitis and abscess, in diabetic patients presenting with scrotal masses.
