A Case Report of Scrotal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Secondary to Chronic Urinary Irritation

Cureus. 2018 Apr 5;10(4):e2430. doi: 10.7759/cureus.2430.

Abstract

Most scrotum cancers are associated with occupational exposure. We report a case of a squamous cell carcinoma of the scrotum in a patient with a proximal meatus, secondary to mistreated urethral stricture. Based on our observations in this case, we think that chronic urinary inflammation of the scrotal skin may also be considered as a risk factor of scrotal cancer.

Keywords: hypospadias; scrotal cancer; squamous cell carcinoma.
