Objective: To report an uncommon case of idiopathic calcinosis of the scrotum.
Methods/results: A case of idiopathic scrotal calcinosis in a 50-year-old male who presented with multiple hard masses in the scrotum is described. Cytological (fine needle aspiration) and histological (biopsy and resection) analyses of these lesions were performed.
Conclusions: Although the etiopathogenesis of scrotal calcinosis remains unknown, the involvement of a dystropic mechanism has recently been described. The usefulness of fine needle aspiration, a method that has gradually been included in the study of testicular pathology, is underscored.
