Acquired Lymphangiectasia of the Scrotum Successfully Treated with Radiofrequency Ablation: A Case Report with Dermoscopic Review.
Lymphangiectasia is dilatation of normal superficial lymphatic vessels due to damage or obstruction of deep lymphatic vessels leading to increased lymphatic pressure and engorgement of dermal lymphatics due to varying causes. Lymphangiectasia clinically presents as thick-walled, translucent vesicles and papules with chronic lymphedema rarely involving the scrotum. Here we report a patient with acquired lymphangiectasia of the scrotum secondary to surgery for hydrocele successfully treated with radiofrequency ablation. We highlight the use of dermoscopy as a non-invasive diagnostic tool in lymphangiectasia.
