Key Words Squamous cell carcinoma; Genital cancer; Scrotal cancer
Core Tip Scrotal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) although rare, represents one of the most common forms of scrotal malignancy. The epidemiology of SCC has changed over time and iatrogenic conditions (psoralens and ultraviolet A radiation, immunosuppression, etc.) and human papilloma virus infection play a significant role as associating conditions. Surgery is the cornerstone of treatment and primary excision with risk stratified approach for staging and treatment of regional lymph node is advisable. Sentinel lymph node biopsy can mitigate the morbidities of unwarranted inguinal lymph node dissection in selected cases. For locally advanced and metastatic disease palliative chemotherapy is advocated. Targeted therapies might hold promise for management of advanced SCC.
