Abstract

Hemolymphangioma is an uncommon benign tumor type that commonly occurs in the head and neck. Primary spermatic cord hemolymphangioma (SCH) with only several reported, however, is extremely rare. Clinical diagnosis can be challenging because of its rarity. Although spermatic cord hemolymphangiomas are benign tumors, there is still a high recurrence rate in postoperative. A 15-year-old boy presented to our hospital with complaints of scrotal for 15 days and did not have other associated symptoms. The male genital color Doppler ultrasound revealed that a cystic echo in the left spermatic cord region and above the testes was about 32 mm × 20 mm × 14 mm. He underwent left en bloc scrotum tumor resection under general anesthesia, and pathologic examination showed SCH. He was discharged from the hospital in the second postoperative day. After 1-month follow-up, the patient recovered well without recurrence. The patient is currently in follow-up phase. Up to date, only a few cases have been reported in the literature about SCH. So, we hope to raise the awareness of the diagnosis of SCH in clinical practice although this case.
