Epididymal Cystic Lymphangioma Presenting as Scrotal Swelling in a Post Surgery Case of Carcinoma Rectum- A Case Report

Journal Title: Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research - Year 2017, Vol 11, Issue 9

Abstract

Cystic lymphangiomas are usually congenital malformations of draining lymphatic channels with most common sites including neck, axilla, mediastinum and retroperitoneum. Occurrence of lymphangiomas in scrotum or inguinal region is a rare entity and epididymal origin of these lesions is even more infrequent. We herein report a case of epididymal lymphangioma detected on USG, which developed after surgical abdominal lymph nodal dissection in an adult patient of carcinoma rectum presenting as painless scrotal swelling.
