Abstract

A forty-three-year-old man complained of painless, firm scrotal nodules which had first appeared at age sixteen. These were diagnosed clinically as multiple epidermoid inclusion cysts and were excised. Histologically they were composed of calcified, amorphous, granular material, characteristic of idiopathic calcinosis of the scrotum. This is a rare, benign condition without any recognized underlying metabolic abnormalities. The cause of idiopathic calcinosis of the scrotum is unknown, but we believe it is due to dystrophic calcification of dartoic muscles.

摘要

一名43岁男性主诉阴囊出现无痛性、质地坚硬的结节，这些结节于16岁时首次出现。临床诊断为多发性表皮样包涵囊肿并进行了切除。组织学检查显示，它们由钙化的、无定形的、颗粒状物质组成，这是阴囊特发性钙化的特征。这是一种罕见的良性疾病，没有任何公认的潜在代谢异常。阴囊特发性钙化的病因尚不清楚，但我们认为这是由于肉膜肌营养不良性钙化所致。
