Key Points

  • To report a case of scrotal leiomyoma and discuss its management and histopathological features.
  • Case report of a 56-year-old male with a painless scrotal swelling for 20 years.
  • Histopathological examination of the excised 4 x 5cm lesion confirmed the diagnosis of benign leiomyoma.
  • One-year follow-up to assess recurrence.
  • Histopathology confirmed a benign leiomyoma without atypia or mitotic activity.
  • No recurrence noted during the one-year follow-up period.
  • Surgical excision deemed both diagnostic and curative.

Abstract

Leiomyomas are uncommon benign tumors of the genitourinary system that can mimic benign scrotal lesions such as sebaceous cysts. A 56-year-old male with a 20-year history of a painless scrotal swelling. It was hard, irregular, non-tender swelling in lower midline of scrotum, distinct from both testes and spermatic cords. He underwent complete surgical excision of a 4 x 5cm lesion. Histopathology confirmed a benign leiomyoma without atypia or any mitotic activity. There was no recurrence at 1 year follow-up. Scrotal leiomyomas is one of the differentials in a long-standing scrotal swelling. Surgical excision is both diagnostic and curative. • Scrotal leiomyoma can be one of the differential of chronic scrotal lesions in middle aged men. • It is necessary that histopathologist performs a careful assessment for the any subtle feature of malignancy. • Conservative management recommended initially and surgical excision can be considered when increasing in size or becomes symptomatic.
