Complete excision, Multiple epidermal cyst, ScrotoplastyAbstract
Multiple epidermal cysts over the scrotum is a rare condition and requires surgical intervention if infected or cosmetically unacceptable. Grossly enlarged cysts require complete excision, followed by scrotoplasty. We are reporting a case of multiple epidermal cysts on the scrotum. Complete excision of the cysts followed by scrotoplasty was done in this case.
