Angiokeratoma of Fordyce as a cause of red scrotum.
Two men presented with asymptomatic diffuse redness of the scrotum. Examination showed angiokeratoma of Fordyce (AF), an associated finding. In our practice, AF and diffuse scrotal redness co-occur in 50% of patients. Providing reassurance to the patient is appropriate if this clinical link is detected.
