Scrotal lipoma is a type of rare benign mesenchymal tumor. These lipomas can masquerade as inguinal hernias that can cause surgical dilemmas. The size of lipomas can vary, with some growing into remarkably large masses. We present a case of a 75-year-old male with a history of laparoscopic hernia repair, who noticed a progressively enlarging left scrotal bulge. An open hernia repair procedure was performed, unexpectedly revealing two large left-sided scrotal masses, which were subsequently excised. Based upon the histopathologic findings of these masses, scrotal lipomas with fat necrosis were diagnosed.

Lipoma is a common benign tumor of the body surface, while scrotal lipoma is relatively rare. We report a case of scrotal lipoma in a 5-year-old boy, which presented as a progressively enlarging scrotal mass. Scrotal ultrasonography highly suggested a lipoma, and a scrotal mass resection was performed, leading to a final pathological diagnosis of benign scrotal lipoma.

Scrotal cellular angiofibroma (CAF) is a rare, benign, soft-tissue paratesticular tumor that has been sporadically reported previously. We present a case of a 55-year old male with a scrotal mass ultimately diagnosed with scrotal CAF. Immunohistochemical analysis stained positively for desmin, CD34, and estrogen receptor.

Introduction: The cytology features of neoplastic paratesticular lesions are mostly documented as case reports. Thus, we conducted a case report-based literature review to identify the characteristics of paratesticular neoplasms and tried to determine the significance of FNAC in these tumors.
Methods And Materials: The studies were searched using PubMed and Scopus.

Background: Accessory scrotum is a congenital scrotal anomaly that is usually located anterior to the anus and frequently presents with a lipoma in a bead-like shape. Herein, we present an unusual case of an accessory scrotum with a lipoma connected by a narrow stalk and located posterior to the anus.
Case Presentation: A 1-month-old boy was referred to our hospital for a perineal mass present at birth.
