Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Epididymitis is seen. Most people with this trait have none of those conditions, and a gene on this list says nothing about anyone's own genome.
| Gene | How often it is seen | Conditions |
|---|---|---|
| LYNLYN proto-oncogene, Src family tyrosine kinase | Always | In 1 condition |
| PSMB8proteasome 20S subunit beta 8 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| UNGuracil DNA glycosylase | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| C4Acomplement C4A (Chido/Rodgers blood group) | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| CCR1C-C motif chemokine receptor 1 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |

| FASFas cell surface death receptor | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| HLA-Bmajor histocompatibility complex, class I, B | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| IFNGR1interferon gamma receptor 1 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| IL10interleukin 10 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| IL12Ainterleukin 12A | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |

How often is among people with one of the gene's conditions, the most often across them, as the Human Phenotype Ontology records it. These pages describe traits and the research behind them; they are not a diagnosis, and a doctor or genetic counsellor is the person to ask about symptoms.
