The presentation of a boy with an acutely painful scrotum is often associated with a history of trauma. Two recent patients with a history of scrotal trauma and an enlarged hemiscrotum were found on surgical exploration to have unusual causes for the scrotal enlargement. In the first case, there was bleeding from omentum in an incarcerated inguinal hernia, and in the second, there was bleeding into a scrotal cystic lymphangioma. Fewer than 40 cases of scrotal lymphangioma have been reported.

This report underscores the significance of accurate diagnosis to avoid unnecessary treatment. We also emphasize the sequential events and findings, supported by relevant literature review, that contributed to establishing the correct diagnosis and guiding appropriate treatment decisions.

Testicular cancer is one of the leading malignancies affecting young men, with germ cell tumors (GCTs) being the most prevalent type. These tumors are classified into two main subtypes: seminomas and non-seminomatous germ cell tumors (NSGCTs), with the latter known for their higher likelihood of metastasis. Early detection through imaging and tumor markers like alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) and beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) is crucial for favorable outcomes.
