Abstract

We report a case of multiple leiomyoma of the scrotum in a 44-year-old man.

Several pinhead sized erythematous papules developed on the scrotum 1 year ago and the number was gradually increased. The skin lesion was painless and did not show any difference due to temperature changes such as colorless and external stimuli.

Histologically, there was hyperplasia of bundles of smooth muscle fibers in the dermis. The smooth muscle fibers contained centrally located, thin, very long, blunt-edged, "eel-like" nuclei.
