We report herein a 39-year-old man with a left scrotal swelling. The clinical and ultrasonographic appearances were suggestive of epididymal cyst. Histopathology of the excised lesion was shown to be lymphangioma of the epididymis. The differential diagnoses of a swelling in the scrotum of a young man include both benign and malignant conditions. Lymphangioma of the epididymis is, however, a rare and unusual cause.
