Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) and epididymo-orchitis, which are rarely seen in patients with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD), were reported in this study. This is the first case in the literature showing this combination following an inflammatory syndrome.
Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) has rarely been reported in patients with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD), despite the fact that they seem more susceptible to intracellular infection. We describe a rare presentation of VL and epididymo-orchitis in a patient with CGD, which has not been seen previously in the literature following inflammatory syndrome.
