RESUMO

INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: The main types of scrotal vascular lesions are varicocele, hemangioma, lymphangioma and arteriovenous malformation (AVM). AVM consists of network between arteries and veins without capillaries. It is the rarest type especially when in scrotum. CASE PRESENTATION: A 24-year-old male patient presented with a skin deformity and painless swelling in the left scrotum. Physical examination revealed this swelling that extended to the inguinal region. Duplex Ultrasound (DUS) followed by Multi-slice Computed Tomography (MSCT) were performed to establish the diagnosis. Management depended on surgical excision without angioembolization. Preoperative sperm analysis showed oligoasthenozoospermia that improves significantly after treatment and 1 year of follow-up. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: Surgical resection of scrotal AVM without embolization has been used in very few cases and has resulted in a satisfactory outcome with no signs of recurrence throughout the follow-up period. CONCLUSION: Based on our experience, surgical excision without embolization is a reasonable alternative approach to treat scrotal AVM in low-income countries alongside avoiding the negative consequences of radiation therapy. Treatment should be considered when fertility is affected.
