Sometimes the nurse or aide decides not to include the scrotum in the shave for reasons of their own. It might be skipped if the incision is up near the ribs, as in a gallbladder operation or another procedure above the navel.
But it surely should be shaved for any procedure lower than that, like a hernia of the lower abdomen or an appendectomy.
Generally, they should shave the scrotum every time, since it is part of the abdominal prep standard procedure, and most of them do include it. They really have no authority to change the procedure, but as we have seen above, some of them make the decision to omit the scrotum, anyhow.

A few years ago I was getting shaved for a hernia exam by a young woman who was quite pretty but I suspect new to the job. As she was shaving my pubic area and scrotum she handled my penis throughout the process. Not only that, she handled it exactly as if she intended to masturbate it, with her fingers all around it. If you can believe it, she did all this fairly innocently. Somehow I got the impression that was how she treated a boyfriend's penis and she was just used to holding them that way. She was as I said pretty but I would guess no more than average intelligence. I got an erection from the process, which did not seems to faze her one bit! In fact it was as if she expected it. On the other hand she took no obvious pleasure from it, nor do I think she was concealing any. And she wasn't the least irritated by it either. It was just as if she expected me to get an erection from the get-go and was handling my penis as she would any erect penis she was familiar enough with to masturbate. She never did that to me of course. Just left it standing high and proud as she wiped me off afterwards and draped the sheet back over my "tent'. Never said a word about it either. It was like it happened that way every time she shaved a guy, and for all I know, it did.
It was a remarkable and noteworthy experience.
I gather the diagrams and notes they use to teach women how to do shaving like this do not mention erections or penises and how to hold or not hold them. So the women make up their own rules based on their own experiences and go about their business. I think that young woman entered my hospital room with the firm idea that I would get an erection during the procedure. And I did. Sort of like the old saying -- "10,000 years of human experience proves conclusively that beating a tom-tom when the sun sets will cause it to rise again the next morning."
