Case reports of benign intrascrotal tumors: Two epidermoid cysts and one scrotal calcinosis

Abstract

Background: The aim this study was to explain the underlying etiology of unknown scrotal masses. Case presentation: This study included 3 patients with a intrascrotal mass. One patient was over 50 years. The remaining patients were between the ages of 30-50. Patients had no serious complaints (two complained about having 3 testicles and one complained of swelling in the scrotum for the last 6 months). All patients underwent scrotal exploration under general anesthesia and the specimen was sent for pathological examination. All masses were mobile and encapsulated. The masses were not associated with the testicle. Two cases had classical histologic features of epidermoid cyst and one had scrotal calcinosis in the pathological report. Physical examination, operation, magnetic resonance and histological images of scrotal masses were shown in the figures. Conclusions: This study is important in terms of showing the underlying etiology of the rare scrotal masses.

Diagnosis and therapy of giant epidermoid double cysts with infection on the buttock: A case report and literature review

“…[6,7] EC are mostly solitary, often located in the head and neck, [8][9][10] trunk, [11][12][13][14][15][16] buttocks, [17,18] and extremities. [19] EC occasionally occur in the scrotum, [20] thymus, [21] mammary glands, [22] parotid glands [23] and other locations. Multiple EC is rare, [24] Figure 1.…”

Histopathologic features of calcinosis cutis: a case series

“…9,10 CONCLUSIONIn conclusion, this case series provides a comprehensive overview of calcinosis cutis, with key emphasis on the clinical findings and various gross and microscopic findings which would help in the diagnosis.While further research is needed to establish evidencebased guidelines for calcinosis cutis diagnosis, this case series contributes to the existing knowledge and understanding of the condition. It is hoped that the findings presented here will inform clinical practice, stimulate further research, and ultimately improve patient outcomes in individuals affected by calcinosis cutis.…”
