Abstract
- A hemangioma is a benign tumor arising in the vessels, but an intrascrotal hemangioma is rare, and a hemangioma of the epididymis is extremely rare. Ultrasound and MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) are mainly used for the diagnosis of an intrascrotal hemangioma, with surgical excision being the appropriate treatment. We report on the case of a 24 year- old-man with a mixed hemangioma of the epididymis.
