To describe a case of scrotal epidermal cyst with special reference to the differential diagnosis between cystic and tumoral lesions.
METHODS/RESULTS: The clinical history of a patient with an epidermal cyst localized to the scrotum is presented and the literature is briefly reviewed. Scrotal epidermal cysts and pilonidal cysts are distinct. Their etiology (embryonic vs acquired) is discussed from an academic perspective.
Pilonidal and epidermal cysts are benign lesions. Excisional biopsy using local anesthesia will generally suffice for the classification and treatment of these lesions.
描述一例阴囊表皮样囊肿病例，并特别提及囊性病变与肿瘤性病变的鉴别诊断。
方法/结果：介绍了一例阴囊表皮样囊肿患者的临床病史，并对相关文献进行了简要回顾。阴囊表皮样囊肿与藏毛窦囊肿不同。从学术角度讨论了它们的病因（胚胎性与后天性）。
藏毛窦囊肿和表皮样囊肿均为良性病变。局部麻醉下切除活检通常足以对这些病变进行分类和治疗。
