General physical examination of the male at whatever age is incomplete unless the scrotum and its contents are assessed. Since the scrotum consists of skin, fibrous connective tissue, smooth muscle, vessels, nerves, and a lining of simple squamous epithelium, a variety of tumors may arise in it. Scrotal tumors, however, are infrequent. Rare tumors are solitary neurilemomas. The English literature does not describe a giant neurilemoma of the scrotum.
无论男性处于何种年龄，若不检查阴囊及其内容物，一般体格检查就是不完整的。由于阴囊由皮肤、纤维结缔组织、平滑肌、血管、神经以及单层鳞状上皮衬里组成，因此阴囊内可能会出现多种肿瘤。然而，阴囊肿瘤并不常见。罕见的肿瘤有孤立性神经鞘瘤。英文文献中未描述过阴囊巨大神经鞘瘤。
