A 54-year-old male diabetic presented with multiple swellings in the scrotal region with a duration of 15 years, which was initially peanut sized and painless and which gradually progressed to 1-1.5 cm in diameter and more than 100 in number. His haematological and biochemical parameters were within normal limits. Fine needle aspiration of the nodule revealed hypocellular smears with a pale pink to bluish coloured granular material in the background. On microscopy, the sections showed calcified nodules and masses with a peripheral giant cell reaction within the dermis and the subcutaneous tissue, which were positive for the Von Kossa stain. It was reported as Idiopathic calcinosis Cutis – Scrotum. Herewith, we are presenting a rare case of extensive idiopathic scrotal calcinosis.
