Abstract

Scrotal lymphangioma is a rare differential diagnosis in boys with acute scrotal pain. A 5-year-old boy presented with acute scrotal pain and swelling. Physical examination demonstrated an unusual cystic scrotal mass with a normal testis. Ultrasound and MRI showed a complex septated cystic mass. The tumor was excised completely via an inguinal and scrotal approach. 2-year follow-up examinations with physical examination and ultrasound have shown no evidence of recurrence. Scrotal lymphangiomas are commonly misdiagnosed preoperatively. When ymphangioma is suspected, ultrasound and MRI imaging of the adjacent inguinal, perineal and pelvic region should be performed. To prevent recurrence, complete surgical excision is mandatory.
