%X UNASSIGNED: Epidermoid cysts are tumors and that rarely occur in intrascrotal extratesticular tissues. It is extremely rare for the tumors to penetrate the penile corpora cavernosa.
UNASSIGNED: We encountered a 4-year-old and a 6-year-old boy with intrascrotal tumors that penetrated the penile corpora cavernosa. Both the patients underwent tumor resection. In the former case, some of the tumor within the corpora cavernosa was left behind, while in the latter case, the tumor was completely resected. Pathological examination in both cases confirmed the diagnosis of epidermoid cysts.
UNASSIGNED: We should consider the possibility of epidermoid cysts in children presenting with intrascrotal tumors. Moreover, care should be taken when handling the corpora cavernosa during surgery.
