Abstract:
Pilomatrixoma is a benign adnexal skin tumor involving the hair follicle matrix. It is found in children, predominantly involving the face. We report here an interesting and rare case of a 52-year-old male presenting with a large, firm, and painless mass over the scrotum considered to be a sebaceous cyst. The mass was completely excised and a biopsy report revealed it to be a pilomatrixoma of the scrotum. The patient recovered well postoperatively with no recurrence over two years.
