Idiopathic calcinosis cutis of scrotum (ICCS): excision with scrotoplasty.

Abstract

Scrotal calcinosis is an infrequent benign pathological condition characterised by the presence of multiple calcified nodules on the skin of the scrotum. Despite the formulation of several theories, the precise pathogenesis of this condition remains a subject of controversy within the scientific community. The predominant concern associated with scrotal calcinosis is of an aesthetic nature, and histological examination serves as the definitive method for confirmation of the diagnosis. The manifestation of scrotal nodules and cysts is an uncommon occurrence, and in cases where these manifestations are asymptomatic, the diagnostic timeframe may extend over several years, potentially spanning decades. Surgical excision of the calcified lesions is the established treatment modality, serving both diagnostic and therapeutic objectives.
