[Cavernous hemangioma of the scrotum].
OBJECTIVE
To describe a case of scrotal cavernous hemangioma.


METHODS
A 4-year old boy with a painful left scrotal mass is described. The epidemiology, natural history, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of this tumor are reviewed.


RESULTS
Analysis of the surgical specimen disclosed a scrotal cavernous hemangioma.


CONCLUSIONS
A scrotal mass diagnosed at an uncommon age or atypical site warrants considering hemangioma as a possible etiology.
