Abstract

Steatocystoma Multiplex (SM) is a disease progressing with cysts full of sebum which consists of sebaceous glands on the cyst wall and generally cause multiple lesions [1].

Lesions are most frequently observed in the neck, axilla, and inguinal region. It is very rare to observe the lesions in scrotum[3].
