	Scrotum - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		The scrotum (human variant shown) is a thin extension of the abdomen that contains the testes and helps regulate their temperature.
		The function of the scrotum appears to be to keep the testicles at a temperature slightly lower than that of the rest of the body.
		The temperature is controlled by making the scrotum tighter, hence moving the testicles closer to the abdomen, when it is cold, and conversely, through the cremasteric reflex, the gradual tightening and loosening of the cremaster muscle in the abdomen and the dartos fascia (muscular tissue under the skin) in the scrotum.

		Background: In 1896, John Addison Fordyce first described angiokeratomas of Fordyce on the scrotum of a 60-year-old man.

		Histologically, they are composed of dilated ectatic capillaries in the superficial dermis with overlying epidermal hyperplasia.
		The patient may not be aware of the lesions, and bleeding (spontaneous, after intercourse or scratching) may be the first presentation causing the patient to seek medical help.
