Abstract

A 13-year old boy was seen for progressive enlargement of a right scrotal mass that had been present since early childhood. Scrotal mass was excised and consisted of a well demarcated multinodular cystic soft mass. Pathology was characteristic of cavernous lymphangioma. Lymphangiomas are benign tumors of congenital origin, occurring about 95% of the lesion at neck and axilla. Their scrotal location is quite uncommon. Treatment consists of surgical excision. Unless completely removed, recurrences are common.
