Superficial angiomyxoma is a rare benign multilobulated cutaneous tumor, comprising a prominent myxoid matrix and numerous blood vessels. The tumor usually presents with a nodular lesion on the trunk, head, and neck. We describe a case of superficial angiomyxoma unusually located on the scrotum of a 4‐year‐old boy.
