Abstract
Scrotal Calcinosis (SC) is a sporadic approachable disease distinguished by appearance of multiple pulmonary nodules within the standard scrotal corium. A 34 year old Bengali (Indian) man presented with six month chronicle of scrotal growth that swiftly increased in size and number. Examination of skin divulged pain-free multiple growths (1 cm to 2 cm in size) below the scrotal corium. Histological enquiry showed no epithelial interlining. Serum and Urinary volume of calcium and phosphates were within usual limitations. Pathogenesis of scrotal calcinosis is not distinctly familiar. In our manifestation no confirmation of cystic formation was found around indurate medium. This proposed that SC might be ascendant in genesis. Therapy of disease is postoperative but foremost methodology is yet to be decided.
