We report 2 cases of sarcoidosis with extrapulmonary manifestations in the testis, epididymis and spermatic cord. Each patient presented with an intrascrotal mass of unknown origin that suggested a testicular tumor. Sarcoidosis was confirmed in case 1 by radical orchiectomy and further small sarcoid foci were detected in 1 of the lacrimal glands. In case 2 sarcoidosis was confirmed by biopsy and there were no further extrapulmonary indications. Both cases were stage II disease so no specific therapy was applied. The patients were without signs of progression at 2 and 10 years, respectively, after initial diagnosis.
