title: [A case of intrascrotal rhabdomyosarcoma].
abstract: We report a case of intrascrotal rhabdomyosarcoma. A 15-year-old boy visited our clinic with the chief complaint of swelling of the right hemiscrotum. He had a history of fever and right hemiscrotal pain. With the initial diagnosis of acute epididymitis, the patient underwent medical therapy with antibiotics. One month later, because the mass had not responded to medical therapy, a right inguinal orchiectomy was done. Histologic examination revealed rhabdomyosarcoma. The patient received retroperitoneal lymph node dissection and combined chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide, bleomycin, actinomycin-D, adriamycin and vinblastine. He was well 5 years and 10 months postoperatively with no evidence of tumor recurrence or metastasis.
