Abstract |
Sclerosing lipogranuloma is an uncommon, benign condition that can affect several organs, particularly of the genitourinary system in males.

Most case reports involve self-injection with a foreign substance that is pathognomonic. Treatment is often conservative after establishing the diagnosis.
