A 70-year-old man had a three month history of scrotal ulceration. The patient had not previously sought medical attention. Physical examination revealed a 4-cm wide ulcerated erythematous lesion with a more or less well-defined raised pearly border (Fig. 1). No lymph node enlargement was present and the remainder of the skin examination was unremarkable. The patient had no history of scrotal trauma, radiation therapy or exposure to chemicals or arsenic. The lesion was completely removed by excisional surgery.
