L'éléphantiasis péno-scrotal. A propos d'un cas

Résumé Bien qu’ayant été par le passé une zone d’endémie filarienne, les séquelles de la filariose lymphatique deviennent de plus en plus rares au Bénin. Nous rapportons un cas de volumineux éléphantiasis pénoscrotal pris en charge à la clinique universitaire d’urologie-andrologie de Cotonou. Il a été réalisé une plastie pénoscrotale par réduction volumétrique et reconstitution scrotale par deux lambeaux latéraux. Les résultats après un recul de six mois sont satisfaisants.

Introduction: To present the histopathological, etiologic aspects and the surgical procedure to treat a penoscrotal elephantiasis. Observation: A 60-year-old patient was referred for a giant scrotum for 30 years. His general status was poor. The scrotum was bulky, posed a cosmetic problem and limited the patient mobility. He underwent a surgical treatment with removal of the mass. Pathology of the specimen was suggestive of either a non specific fibrosis or a benign vascular tumor. Conclusion: Giant scrotum is rare. The treatment is surgical.
