Scrotal Necrosis Following Heated Intra-peritoneal Chemotherapy: Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Scrotal necrosis is a rare occurrence that is scarcely reported among patients having undergone heated intra-peritoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) procedures. Due to anatomic factors and the thermally enhanced cytotoxicity of chemotherapeutic agents, this complication can have debilitating post-operative effects. We herein highlight the presentation of scrotal necrosis in a patient who underwent HIPEC procedure for peritoneal metastasis secondary to colorectal carcinoma, and how it contrasts to previously documented cases of a similar nature.
