Abstract
A 60-year-old male reported to us with an atypical case of giant steatocystoma multiplex in the scrotum with calcification. There was no family history of similar lesions. Yellowish, creamy material was expressed from a nodule during punch biopsy. The diagnosis was based on clinical as well as histological findings. Successful surgical excision was done to cure the case without any complications.
Highlights
Steatocystoma multiplex occurs as numerous, epitheliallined, sebum-filled dermal cysts with characteristic sebaceous glands in the cyst walls [1]
It is characterized by multiple small soft, movable, yellowish to skin-colored dermal cystic papules and nodules, varying from a few to 20 mm or more in size [3]. It usually remains normal with no central punctum [4]
The cyst was located in the dermis with a folded cyst wall
