Abstract
Scrotal calcinosis is a rare condition characterized by the presence of multiple calcified nodules within the scrotal skin. These nodules are usually painless and benign but can cause significance cosmetic concern and physiological distress due to their appearance. The exact cause is not well understood, but it is believed to be associated with deposition of calcium salts in the soft tissue. It is commonly seen in middle aged adults. We present a case involving a 30 year old male patient who presented with multiple, painless nodular swellings over the scrotum that had gradually increased in size and number since 9 years. The patients medical history did not reveal any metabolic, inflammatory, or systemic conditions, nor any history of trauma. Local examination revealed multiple, firm, painless, subcutaneous nodules within the scrotal wall with no ulcerations (Figure 1). Testis were normal and there was no inguinal lymphadenopathy. All the routine blood investigations were done and a Xray of pelvis was done which showed multiple calcified lesions over the scrotum
