Özet
Wegener granulomatosis (WG) is a type of necrotising vasculitis that affects mainly the respiratory tract, paranasal sinuses and the kidneys. Urogenital involvement is rare; mainly affecting the prostate gland. Testicular involvement in WG is exceptional. We report a 50-year-old male patient with hematuria, proteinuria and testicular pain and renal failure diagnosed as WG by testicular and kidney biopsy. We also provide a review of the literature.
