description | A 47-year-old healthy male had a scrotal lesion for about 10 years which was gradually increasing in size and not associated with pain or tenderness. It was dwarfing the penis and attained its present size of 14 cm × 7.5 cm × 6 cm. There were no discharging sinuses, tenderness, or ulceration. He had no significant past or family history. Laboratory examination revealed unremarkable serum calcium, serum phosphate, serum total protein, serum uric acid, and serum parathormone levels. A clinical diagnosis of epidermal inclusion cysts was suggested. The lesion was entirely excised and sent for histopathologic examination. |
