Abstract:
Lymphangioma is known to be one of the unusual disorders. It involes every area of skin but the scrotum is very rare site. We report a case of cavernons lymphangioma in a 19-year-old man, who complained of multiple ves icle-like papules, serous fluid leakage and swelling of the scrotum for 2 years. Histopathologic findings showed large, irregularly shaped cystic speces lined by a single layer of endothelium in the subcutaneous tissue and between the muscle bundles, These clinical and histopathilogical findings are thought to fit in cavernous lymphangioma of the scrotum.
