Lymphangioma circumscriptum (LC) is anuncommon, benign, cutaneous disorder thatinvolves lymphatic dilatation to cause vesicularand papular lesions on the trunk, extremities, andanogenital areas. It may be a diagnostic challengewhen appearing in the anogenital region andoften is misdiagnosed and mistreated as infectiousetiologies, which include molluscum contagiosumand condylomata accuminata. We report a healthy40-year-old man with a six-month history of aneruption of multiple, asymptomatic, scrotal papulesthat were diagnosed as lymphangiomas. Awarenessof scrotal LC in adult men without prior disease orsymptoms is necessary for proper diagnosis andavoidance of unnecessary treatment.
局限性淋巴管瘤（LC）是一种罕见的良性皮肤疾病，其特征是淋巴管扩张，在躯干、四肢和肛门生殖器区域形成水疱和丘疹样病变。当出现在肛门生殖器区域时，它可能是一个诊断难题，常常被误诊和误治为感染性病因，包括传染性软疣和尖锐湿疣。我们报告了一名健康的40岁男性，有6个月的阴囊多发无症状丘疹发作史，被诊断为淋巴管瘤。对于成年男性中无既往疾病或症状的阴囊LC患者，提高认识对于正确诊断和避免不必要的治疗是必要的。
