title: Cavernous haemangioma of the spermatic cord in a child.
abstract: We present a unique case of an 11-year-old boy with a cavernous haemangioma of the spermatic cord. Sonography showed a well-defined, heterogeneous echoic mass with internal calcifications in the paratesticular region while radiography showed several phleboliths in the scrotum. Both were helpful in differentiating this paratesticular tumour.
