Lymphangioma is a benign tumor caused by localised malformations of well differentiated lymphatic vessels. Epididymal localization is rare, especially in adults.We report a case of a 35 years old patient who had consulted for a swelling left scrotal. The physical examination revealed a nodule in the epididymis, which was confirmed by ultrasound examination of the scrotum. The diagnosis of epididymal lymphangioma was made by histological examination after orchiectomy.

Key words: lymphangioma, adult, epididymis
