[Bilateral scrotal panniculitis in a prepubescent child].

Scrotal panniculitis or scrotal fat necrosis is an uncommon acute scrotal pathology. We report a case of scrotal fat necrosis in a 9 1/2 year-old over-weight boy with bilateral tender scrotal masses, located beneath the tests. Pathologic findings were those of subcutaneous fatty indurated masses with lipogranulomatous foci.
