ABSTRACT
Female-to-male transsexual patient, 22 years old, with neophallus from radial forearm free flap (phalloplasty in March 2014), history of urethral fistula and urethral stricture 1 year later treated with surgical correction (fistulectomy) and suprapubic urinary diversion. Subsequently, he developed a new urethral stenosis located in the urethral anastomosis. Immediately proximal to the stenosis, there was a urethral dilatation (pseudodiverticulum) with a fibrous septum and several retracted stones. The stones were fragmented, the fibrous septum destroyed and the urethral stricture corrected, all with holmium laser. After 40 months of follow-up the patient shows satisfactory urinary flow with no signs of residual lithiasis or stricture.

This case report describes the case of a 37-year-old man that noticed an intrascrotal right mass with 1 month of evolution. During physical exam presented with a large mass at the inferior portion of the right testicle, clearly separated from the testicle, with a tender consistency and mobile. An ultrasound was performed that showed a solid and subcutaneous nodular lesion, extra testicular, heterogeneous, measuring 7.2 cm. Pelvic magnetic resonance imageMRI showed a lesion compatible with a lipoma. The patient was subjected to surgical excision of the lesion by scrotal access, having histology revealed a lipoblastoma (LB) of the scrotum. Histological diagnosis was obtained by microscopic characteristics (well-circumscribed fatty neoplasm) and immunohistochemistry (stains for CD34, S100 protein and PLAG1 were positive; stains for MDM2 and CDK4 were negative). LB is extremely rare after adolescence in any location, being this first described case of intrascrotal LB described in adulthood.
