Abstract

Sclerosing lipogranuloma (SL) of the male external genitalia is a rare chronic inflammatory lesion presenting as subcutaneous masses. The underlying pathological process is a chronic granulomatous reaction of degenerating endogenous or exogenous lipids. We report a case of primary scrotal SL in a 22-year-old Nigerian. The lesion was completely excision and the patient is on long-term follow-up without recurrence.
