Idiopathic Calcinosis Cutis Presenting As Multiple Sebaceous Cysts - A Case Study and Review of Literature

We report a case of 41 years old male, medically free presenting with multiple hard nodules of varying sizes in the scrotum for last 18 years. The diagnosis of sebaceous cysts was made initially. The patient underwent day care surgery for the removal of nodules. The diagnosis of scrotal calcinosis was made on histopathological examination of the specimen.

A Rare Case of Multiple Epidermal Cyst Scrotum and Its Excision Under Spermatic Cord Block Obviating Spinal Or General Anaesthesia Need

Epidermal cysts are the most common epithelial cysts usually with non malignant potential. These occur commonly in hair- bearing areas mostly on the scalp, also on the face, neck, back, and scrotum. Etiology is usually unknown. It can be seen commonly in individuals with history of significant Acne vulgaris. Multiple sebaceous cysts over the scrotum is a rare condition. Only eight cases of multiple epidermal cysts in scrotum have been reported so far from India in the past literature. This condition is usually asymptomatic and painless. It may turn painful if gets infected and often may be associated with discharge of pus. We present a rare case of multiple epidermal cysts of scrotum in a 36 year old patient which was managed with complete excision of the cysts done under local anesthesia followed by primary closure with better outcome in cosmesis taking care of not to jeopardize the vascular supply to local flaps and testis.

Idiopathic scrotal calcinosis: A brief case report

Idiopathic Scrotal Calcinosis (ISC) is a rare benign lesion involving the scrotal skin which is characterized by the presence of single or multiple calcified nodules. It usually presents during third decade of life. Many theories about the etiopathogenesis have been proposed, one of which is dystrophic calcification in the background of epidermal inclusion cyst over a period of time. Clinically, scrotal calcinosis may be confused with epidermal inclusion cysts, steatocystoma, cutaneous circumscription or benign tumors like lipoma, fibroma or others. Our patient, 25 year old male presented with multiple painless swellings over scrotal skin. Clinical diagnosis of multiple sebaceous cysts was made. Surgical excision of all the nodules was done and sent for histopathological examination. Microscopy revealed presence of amorphous basophilic calcified deposits in the dermis, predominantly without epithelial lining. The histopathological diagnosis of idiopathic scrotal calcinosis was made. Keywords: Idiopathic calcinosis scrotal calcinosis dystrophic calcification epidermal inclusion cyst.

Idiopathic scrotal calcinosis: A dermatosurgical disease

Introduction: Idiopathic scrotal calcinosis is a dermatosurgical disorder affecting the scrotal skin and needs surgical excision. It is characterized by multiple calcified nodules on the scrotal skin. It is limited to scrotal skin and has been classified under calcinosis cutis. Although considered to be a metabolic disorder, the serum calcium remains normal in all patients. Scanty reports of idiopathic scrotal calcinosis are available in literature. Case Report: We report one such case of idiopathic scrotal calcinosis in a 65-year-old male, presenting with multiple painless nodules which were yellowish white and painless involving whole of scrotum. This patient was treated with surgical excision of the involved skin. Conclusion: This case report conveys the message that idiopathic scrotal calcinosis presentation can be large involving whole of scrotum. The picture is classical not to be confused with multiple sebaceous cysts of scrotum. (This page in not part of the published article.)

SCROTAL CALCINOSIS - RARE CASE REPORTS OF TWO CASES

AbstractScrotal calcinosis is a benign disease characterized by multiple calcified scrotal nodules. The nodules develop slowly over many years and patients usually do not seek for treatment, until they grow to large size. Histopathological examination shows deposition of basophilic amorphous material surrounded by giant cell granulomatous reaction. We report two cases of scrotal calcinosis occurring in 27 year and 45 year old males who presented with multiple scrotal swellings. Clinical diagnosis was multiple sebaceous cysts. On histopathology, excised swellings showed deposition of calcium with giant cell reaction. On regular follow up both are doing fine without any recurrence.

A Case Of Multiple Sebaceous Cysts Over Scrotum In A 35 Years Old Male

Multiple sebaceous cysts over the scrotum is a rare condition and requires excision if infected or cosmetically unacceptable. Grossly enlarged or infected cysts require total excision of the scrotal wall followed by the coverage of bare testes. We are reporting a case of infected multiple sebaceous cysts on the scrotum. Total excision of scrotal wall followed by the fascio cutaneous flap coverage was done in this case.

Treatment of eumycetoma with ketoconazole.

Ten patients with eumycetoma were treated with oral ketoconazole in the dosage of 400mg/day for 8 to 24 months. In eight cases the foot was affected: four were due to Madurella mycetomatis and one each due to M grisea, Pyrenochaeta romeroi, Acremonium kiliense and A falciorme. One mycetoma which affected the back and perineum was due to A kiliense, and one case presented with multiple sebaceous cysts and the scalp and M mycetomatis was isolated from the lesion. Clinical and laboratory tests showed excellent tolerance to the drug, with no adverse reactions. Complete cure was obtained in six patients and two showed good responses. The cured patients were followed up for a period ranging from three months to two years without any evidence of recurrence.

Leukonychia totalis, multiple sebaceous cysts, and renal calculi. A syndrome

We have presented a family of 4 generations demonstrating total leukonychia. Multiple sebaceous cysts and renal calculi are associated features of the syndrome. Inheritance is autosomal dominant. We cannot determine whether renal glycosuria is a component of this syndrome.

Leukonychia Totalis, Multiple Sebaceous Cysts, and Renal Calculi

A 27-year-old man had leukonychia totals, multiple sebaceous cysts, and renal calculi. Pedigree analysis showed a total of four generations involved, with koilonychia additionally present in three of the affected individuals. Autosomal dominant inheritance is a postulation.

<h3>Multiple Sebaceous Tumors. Presented by Dr. Douglas Torre</h3><h3>Sites:</h3> Face, trunk, scalp. For many years, a 57-year-old white man had noted asymptomatic papular waxy lesions of the face, trunk, and scalp (Fig 1 and 2). In December 1965 a skin lesion of the right subscapular region became inflamed. This was excised and reported as an epidermoid carcinoma arising from a sebaceous cyst. Since 1965 over 100 skin lesions have been treated cryosurgically. Biopsies of representative lesions have been reported variously as "sebaceous adenoma," "sebaceous carcinoma," and "basal cell epitheliomata with sebaceous differentiation." Past history reveals a primary carcinoma of the ampulla of vater excised in 1960, and a primary carcinoma of the colon resected in 1963. <h3>Discussion</h3> Dr. George C. Andrews: I was trying to classify this case as Gardner's syndrome, but I do not really think it fits into that diagnosis. There are multiple sebaceous cysts or adenomas and

Gardner's syndrome with adrenal carcinoma.

SUMMARYA young woman with familial polyposis of the colon, multiple sebaceous cysts and osteomata (Gardner's syndrome) presented with Cushing's disease associated with carcinoma of the adrenal gland. This appears to be the first recorded case of Gardner's syndrome with adrenal carcinoma, and the first case wherein a metastasizing tumour other than carcinoma of the colon has been fully documented.

Familial polyposis coli with multiple sebaceous cysts and osteomata: Gardner's syndrome.

SummaryThis report describes the association of multiple sebaceous cysts and osteomata with polyposis of the colon—Gardner's syndrome. A mother and all three children were affected. This suggests that the condition is inherited as an autosomal dominant trait. The chromosomes of the affected members of the family were normal.The mother died from metastases from a carcinoma of the colon at the age of 38 years. This finding and the experience of others indicate that children with Gardner's syndrome including polyposis of the colon will most probably develop carcinoma of the colon in middle age. Prophylactic colectomy should be considered in early adult life.

Gardner's syndrome (intestinal polyposis, osteomas, sebaceous cysts) and a new dental discovery

An intensive study has been made into the entity known as Gardner's syndrome, which heretofore had been described as the concomitant appearance of multiple polyposis of the large intestine, osteomas of the bones, and multiple sebaceous cysts. A fourth feature of the disease—the appearance of multiple impacted supernumerary and permancent teeth throughout the maxilla and the mandible—has been described. This feature is of obvious interest to the dental profession, as it may prove to be the diagnostic sign leading to the discovery of the other subclinical manifestations of the disease. Case reports in this article are presented to illustrate the foregoing statement and to show the remarkable appearance of the dental radiographs.

FAMILIAL STEATOCYSTOMA MULTIPLEX

COCKAYNE1has reported that the occurrence of steatocystoma multiplex is rare. In 1937 Ingram and Oldfield2reported that there were on record only five families in which several members in different generations had multiple sebaceous cysts. Subsequently the incidence in additional families has been reported. Ingram and Oldfield reported the incidence of the disease in an additional family, involving 5 members in three generations, in which 1 member had numerous swellings on her face and chest. Her daughter was free of this condition, but her son showed several cysts on his forehead and scalp. Of the son's 7 children (5 sons and 2 daughters), 2 sons and 1 daughter had sebaceous cysts. The other 4 children did not have cysts. Sachs3reported a family of 13 in which 2 sisters and 3 brothers were known to have multiple sebaceous cysts. Two other living members of the family
