Testicular tuberculosis mimicking testicular malignancy.

A 22 years old male presented with right sided scrotal swelling of 5 months duration. On examination it was found to be of orange-sized, firm to hard in consistency with mild tenderness. Ultrasonography of testes failed to arrive at a diagnosis. However, fine needle aspiration cytology of the testicular swelling confirmed the diagnosis of testicular tuberculosis. Even conservative approach in the management gave satisfactory result.

Hyperviscosity syndrome with pulmonary involvement.

A 44-year-old male presented with dizziness, blurring of vision, unproductive cough, dyspnoea, heaviness of head, fever and hepatosplenomegaly along with reticulonodular infiltration in chest x-ray. His serum showed monoclonal IgM gammopathy. Peripheral blood smear, bone marrow examination and serum protein electrophoresis suggested it was a case of Waldenstrom's macroglobulinaemia. Chest x-ray and CT scan of thorax were suggestive of pulmonary involvement in the form of interstitial lung disease.
