Large pyogenic granuloma on the scrotum; a case report

Abstract

Background: Pyogenic granuloma (PG) is a common benign vascular lesion of the skin and mucosa, which happens following different stimuli. Although the common sites for PG are the face, oral cavity, upper trunk and digits, here we report a rare case of large PG on the scrotum. Case Presentation: On 12 January 2021, a 14-year-old Caucasian boy came to the urology clinic of Alzahra hospital, Isfahan, Iran with a large pink lesion on the left hemi-scrotum, which has been gradually enlarged for the past four months with rapid growth in the last three weeks becoming 4 cm in diameter. We resected the lesion using microscopic surgery and the findings in the histopathological study were consistent with PG. Conclusion: Here we reported a rare case of teenage Caucasian boy with large PG on the scrotum for the first time. Although this lesion is rare, urologists should be familiar with it.
