title: Penoscrotal mass: a rare presentation of herpes simplex virus infection.
abstract: A 55-year-old man presents with a 10-cm condylomatous penoscrotal mass. Final pathology after surgical removal reveals a rare vegetative lesion with underlying herpes simplex virus infection. Along with neoplasia, infectious causes must remain in the differential diagnosis in the immunocompromised patient who presents with an atypical lesion.
