Abstract

Background

Giant vascular eccrine spiradenoma is a rare variant of eccrine spiradenoma. It is different from the eccrine spiradenoma in its larger size and greater degree of vascularity. It is often clinically confusedwith a vascular or malignant tumor.

Case presentation

Here, we report a case of a 67-year-old man who presented with a tumor in the scrotum scrotal region for 6 years. The tumor had begun as a small nodule and had grown slowly with over time. Surgical excision and pathological examination revealed that the lesion was the a giant vascular eccrine spiradenoma.

Conclusion

This study reports the first case of giant vascular eccrine spiradenoma in the scrotum.
