Idiopathic calcinosis of the scrotum is a rare condition of unknown etiology. As counterparts of this male disorder, only two female cases have been reported. We report a third case, the first of its kind, in Japan. Histochemical stains revealed acid mucopolysaccharide (acid-MPS) within the calcinosis and many infiltrated mast cells near it; these might histogenese the calcium deposition. Immunohistochemically, polyclonal carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and keratin stains revealed no positive cells near the calcium depositions.
特发性阴囊钙质沉着症是一种病因不明的罕见病症。作为这种男性疾病的对应情况,仅报告过两例女性病例。我们报告了日本首例此类的第三例病例。组织化学染色显示钙质沉着症内存在酸性粘多糖(酸性MPS),且其附近有许多浸润的肥大细胞;这些可能是钙沉积的组织发生原因。免疫组织化学检测显示,多克隆癌胚抗原(CEA)和角蛋白染色在钙沉积附近未发现阳性细胞。
