| Sumario: | Giant tumoral calcinosis is frequently seen around the joints in patients on maintenance hemodialysis (MHD), while it is rarely seen in the scrotum alone. In this paper, we report a 46-year-old male MHD patient who had a giant painless mass in the right scrotum for 2 years, which was removed by a single complete resection and was pathologically confirmed to be tumoral calcinosis. The prognosis of the patient was satisfactory. Uremic scrotal mass should be distinguished from this disease. |
