Lymphangioma an unusual adult scrotal lump: case report and review

Abstract

Cystic lymphangiomas are congenital lymphatic malformations that most commonly develop in the neck, axilla, mediastinum and retroperitoneum. They occur usually in children but occasionally in adults. The scrotum is a very rare site for this tumor and only few cases have been reported in the literature. We report the case of a scrotal lymphangioma in a 24-year-old male patient who developed painless scrotal swelling. Typical sonography and MRI findings are shown. Surgical excision and histopathology confirmed the diagnosis.
