Abstract

The patient was a boy two years and six months old. He was brought to our University Hospital with the chief complaint of scrotal mass for two years. On palpation, the mass was discriminated from the testis, epididymis and spermatic cord. The mass was followed by ultrasonography and we found two masses at the age of two years and six months. The tumors were surgically resected and they were 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.5 cm, 1.5 x 1.0 x 0.5 cm in size, respectively. Histopathological examination revealed venous and capillary hemangioma. We discuss this case, and review the literature.
