A 24-year-old male came to our clinic for a volumetric increase of a suspected scrotal hemangioma with thrombosis episodes. The ultrasound rose the suspicion of hemangioma and the Magnetic Resonance (MR) of the scrotum confirmed the suspicion. The mass was surgically removed and histopathology described a hemangioma cavernous. The postoperative course was regular and no subsequent relapse was shown in 5 months follow-up.
