- Abstract: Although a hemangioma is usually found in childhood, a cavernous hemangioma of the genitalia is rarely found. Urologists often face difficulty when making the decision for surgery to treat a genital cavernous hemangioma. We report here on a case of a cavernous hemangioma that extended into the glans penis, penile shaft and scrotum. Immediately after surgical excision of the hemangiomas in the penile shaft and scrotum, the worm-like lesions subsided. The protruding lesions of the glans penis were naturally relieved after 12 months follow up.
