    • It commonly follows inguinal or retroperitoneal surgical procedures.

    Observation:

    • Four distinct cases of scrotal emphysema are presented.
    • Three cases arose secondary to thoracic problems.
    • One case involved direct scrotal inflation using a syringe and needle.

    Findings:

    • This study highlights less common etiologies of scrotal emphysema.
    • It emphasizes the importance of considering non-surgical origins.

    Implications:

    • Broadens understanding of scrotal emphysema causes beyond typical surgical sites.
    • Informs diagnostic and management strategies for this rare condition.
