Abstract:

Leiomyomas are benign tumors that originate from smooth muscle cells. Leiomyomas are well known to be the commonest neoplasm arising from the uterus but leiomyomas originating from the scrotum is a rare entity. They originate from the subcutaneous tissue or tunica dartos and can be solitary or multiple. We present a case of solitary scrotal leiomyoma in a 75 years old male who presented with a slowly growing, painless, firm, mobile 4cm lump in right side of scrotum. Clinically, it was provisionally diagnosed as sebaceous cyst and was excised. Histopathology and Immunohistochemistry (IHC) showed findings consistent with Leiomyoma. There was no cytological atypia or mitosis. The final diagnosis of scrotal leiomyoma was given.   How to cite this article: Rana S, Sharma P, Singh P, N Satarkar R.
