Scrotal hemangiomas are rare benign tumors. This case highlights the successful preoperative diagnosis of an intrascrotal cavernous hemangioma using ultrasound and MRI, followed by surgical excision.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Diagnostic Imaging

Background:

  • Scrotal hemangiomas are rare, accounting for less than 1% of all hemangiomas.
  • They can extend into surrounding perineal, thigh, or abdominal regions.
  • Conservative management is typical for cutaneous hemangiomas, but scrotal masses warrant exploration.

Observation:

  • A 19-year-old male presented with an intrascrotal tumor.
  • Preoperative assessment utilized color duplex ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
  • Imaging delineated the extent of the tumor, aiding in diagnosis.

Findings:

  • The intrascrotal tumor was diagnosed as a cavernous hemangioma.
  • Absence of Doppler flow did not preclude hemangioma diagnosis, underscoring MRI's utility.

  • En bloc excision was performed following accurate preoperative diagnosis.

    • Implications:

    • This case emphasizes the importance of advanced imaging like MRI for diagnosing rare scrotal hemangiomas.
    • Surgical exploration and excision remain the standard treatment for symptomatic intrascrotal masses.
    • Accurate preoperative diagnosis improves surgical planning and patient outcomes for rare scrotal tumors.
