Introduction and Importance: Traumatic scrotal sac hematoma is an uncommon medical condition following a fall injury. Symptoms include swelling, pain, and discoloration. Accurate and immediate diagnosis is crucial to avoid complications and prevent testis loss, abscess formation, erectile dysfunction, and infection. This case highlights the importance of prompt evaluation and treatment to prevent complications and ensure optimal patient outcomes. Case Presentation: A 56-year-old man without prior medical history presented to the emergency department with scrotal pain and swelling 10 h after a traumatic event. The patient underwent a series of examinations, including radiological studies, before undergoing scrotal exploration and hematoma evacuation under subarachnoid block anesthesia. As of now, the patient has not experienced any complications that have impacted his quality of life. Clinical Discussion: Scrotal sac hematoma is formed following a blunt trauma when a significant force is transferred during contact with a solid object, impact from sports equipment, road traffic accidents, or falls from a height. If early exploration is delayed, then it can lead to complications like testicular atrophy, abscess formation, and infection. Hence, prompt diagnosis with clinical and radiological evaluation followed by immediate surgical intervention can result in better outcomes. Conclusion: Scrotal sac hematoma from blunt trauma is rare but can cause significant morbidity and psychological distress. Early surgical intervention is often necessary, especially if a testicle has ruptured, to salvage viable testicular tissue and control bleeding, resolve pain faster, shorten hospital stays, and improve the quality of life for patients.

Introduction and importance: Xanthogranulomatous mastitis is a rare chronic granulomatous inflammation of breast tissue, characterized by the presence of multinucleated giant cells, lipid-laden foamy macrophages, and cholesterol crystals. The breast is an extremely rare location for xanthogranulomatous inflammation. Case presentation: The authors describe a case of xanthogranulomatous mastitis in a 26-year-old female patient who presented with a 4×5 cm lump in her right breast. After ultrasonography (revealed a well-circumscribed hypoechoic lesion, with increased vascularity), and surgical consultation, an excisional biopsy was done, and sent for histopathologic examination, which showed features suggestive of xanthogranulomatous mastitis. Clinical discussion: Xanthogranulomatous mastitis, clinically as well as radiologically mimics some other conditions of breast like breast cancer, or fibroadenoma. Ultrasonography usually reveals a well-circumscribed hypoechoic lesion, with increased vascularity, and mammography usually shows BIRADs 3 to 5. Diagnosis is usually based on histopathologic findings of multinucleated giant cells, lipid-laden foamy macrophages, and cholesterol crystals. Treatment is usually surgical excision. Conclusion: Though xanthogranulomatous inflammations are rare in the breast, they must be considered a differential diagnosis in patients presenting with various breast symptoms like lump, pain, or features of breast malignancy.
