Abstract:
A myxoma is a benign intramuscular gelatinous tumor that is rarely known to arise from the scrotum. It can be confused both clinically and radiologically with other more common scrotal wall lesions such as a sebaceous cyst or an abscess. We report a case of a 54-year-old patient who presented with a scrotal wall swelling that was initially suspected to be an infected cyst or cold abscess on imaging. The final diagnosis of a myxoma was made after surgical excision and histopathological examination.
