One of the complications of an inguinal lymphadenectomy is formation of a lymphocyst. The literature dealing with management of this complication is scant. In this report we present a patient who developed an inguinal lymphocyst which did not respond to percutaneous drainage, but was successfully treated with sclerotherapy using bleomycin. Based on our experience and review of the literature a scheme for the management of groin lymphocysts is presented.
