Scrotal calcinosis is a rare condition characterized by multiple calcified nodules within scrotal skin. To our knowledge, only 67 cases have been reported to date. The etiology has been widely disputed and is viewed by many to be idiopathic. We describe a case of "idiopathic" scrotal calcinosis that not only presents a distinctly unusual clinical appearance, but also shows that at least some cases of this disease occur in association with dystrophic calcification of epidermal (follicular) cysts.
阴囊钙化症是一种罕见病症，其特征为阴囊皮肤内出现多个钙化结节。据我们所知，迄今为止仅有67例病例报告。该病的病因一直存在广泛争议，许多人认为是特发性的。我们描述了一例“特发性”阴囊钙化症病例，该病例不仅呈现出极为罕见的临床表现，还表明这种疾病至少部分病例与表皮（毛囊）囊肿的营养不良性钙化有关。
