title: [An intrascrotal epidermoid cyst: apropos a case].
abstract: We report a case of simple epidermoid cyst of the scrotum. Complete excision was performed transcrotally and the presence of epidermoid cyst confirmed by histopathological examination. Epidermoid cyst of the scrotum is a rare disease and only 10 cases have been reported. Simple excision was sufficient for treatment of this very rare lesion. The patient is now in the follow-up period.
