Lymphangioma of male exogenital organs

J Chin Med Assoc. 2004 Apr;67(4):204-6.

Abstract

Lymphangioma manifesting in the genitourinary tract is an uncommon disease. Cystic lymphangioma is a congenital lymphatic hamartoma known as lymphatic malformation. Herein we report 2 cases of lymphangioma of male exogenital organs. After complete excision of the tumor and subsequent follow-up for 6 months, both of them were free of recurrence. Ultrasonography and computed tomography scans are very useful in the differential diagnosis of this cystic disease.
