Neonatal scrotal hematoma is considered a surgical emergency in the neonatal period. Up to recently, immediate surgical exploration was considered the gold standard for the diagnosis and treatment in the underlying causes.

The hematoma had gradually subsided, and any surgical intervention was avoided to the neonate. With good clinical and imaging follow-up, some cases could be managed nonoperatively.
