Intrascrotal neurofibromas.
A solitary intrascrotal neurofibroma in a seventy-seven-year-old man is reported. This benign tumor of the nerve sheath arises from the Schwann cell and is rare in the external genitalia, especially in the absence of clinical and histopathologic stigmas of von Recklinghausen neurofibromatosis. The literature on intrascrotal neurofibromas is reviewed.
