Abstract A 7-year-old boy who presented with a painful left hemiscrotal mass was diagnosed with acquired lymphangioma of the scrotum. Chronic friction from a cast for Perthes' disease might have been the cause of sudden enlargement of a congenital lymphangioma of the scrotum. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was useful for preoperative diagnosis and determining the extent of the scrotal lesions. Total excision of the mass leaving the overlying skin was successfully performed. The clinical significance of MRI for preoperative diagnosis and planning surgical resection of this lesion is discussed.
