Lymphangioma is a rare and understudied pathology that is usually detected in the first decade of life, and its appearance in adults is rare. This report details a 51-year-old man with morbid obesity who presented, for the last eight months, multiple asymmetric tumor lesions with extension to the scrotal region. The diagnosis of circumscribed lymphangioma with associated infection was confirmed. This case report demonstrates an unusual presentation of the characteristics of the lymphangioma that are seldom described in the literature.
淋巴管瘤是一种罕见且研究不足的病理情况，通常在生命的第一个十年被发现，在成年人中出现的情况很少见。本报告详细介绍了一名51岁的病态肥胖男性，在过去八个月里出现了多个不对称的肿瘤病变，并蔓延至阴囊区域。确诊为局限性淋巴管瘤伴相关感染。本病例报告展示了淋巴管瘤特征的一种不寻常表现，而这在文献中很少被描述。
