Abstract :
Filariasis is a parasitic infestation caused by the nematode Wuchereria bancrofti. It is a major public
health problem and socio–economical problem in tropical and sub–tropical countries. The clinical manifestations of filariasis depend upon the stage in the course of infection in the human host and the worm load. It is a rarity
to document filarial worms in histopathology from the epididymus. We present a case of epididymal filariasis where
the patient had presented to us with pain in the right scrotum of 20 days duration.
