Abstract
•Angiomyolipomas are benign mesenchymal tumors.•This is the first case of angiomyolipoma of the scrotum in infancy.•Although extremely rare, it should be considered in cases of scrotal tumor.
A 12-month-old boy presented with left scrotal swelling. The mass was irregular, soft, fleshy, and nontender. It adhered to the scrotal skin and gradually enlarged. Operative findings revealed a mass fixed to the scrotal fundus and diagnosed as angiomyolipoma. This is apparently the first report of scrotal angiomyolipoma in infancy.
