Abstract Background Primary scrotal lipomas are exceptionally uncommon entities within the scrotal sac frequently occur in younger males under 40.It usually painless and found incidentally during imaging.They are generally shades 4nch categorized based on their site of origin.Case presentation A 36-year-old man presented with an acute onset of severe left scrotal pain at midnight.Clinical examination revealed two scrotal masses in the left hemiscrotum associated with excruciating tenderness on palpation and loss of cremasteric reflex.
Ultrasonography showed a well-defined, oval-shaped, isoechoic lesion underlying the median raphe of scrotum alongside bilateral normal testes.Given the intensity of unexplained pain despite high dose of analgesia, urgent scrotal exploration was done.Intra-operatively, a yellowish, firm mass was identified at the upper pole of the left main testis which was excised.Histopathological examination revealed a primary scrotal lipoma with no necrotic area seen.Conclusions Ultrasound is typically the first-line imaging technique to exclude more sinister pathology.
The atypical presentation of excruciating pain mimicking testicular torsion in our case complicates the diagnostic process.Scrotal lipoma can be woodford reserve 5 malt stouted mash for sale and should be excised as the standard treatment albeit found incidentally.
