Abstract

Cutaneous apocrine carcinoma (CAC) is a rare malignancy. It develops predominantly in the regions where apocrine glands are distributed. Some cases of CAC have been reported in the axilla and the inguinal regions, but only a few in the scrotum. We herein report a case of CAC which widely spread over both sides of the whole scrotum with plate-like hard induration, and such a manifestation has never been reported before. CAC is known to have high rates of local recurrence or metastasis, and the efficacy of radiotherapy or chemotherapy has not been established. As therapeutic options for CAC are limited, it is critical to reach the diagnosis and treat at an early stage.
