ABSTRACT
Hidradenitis suppurativa is a chronic relapsing inflammatory skin condition affecting the apocrine sweat glands. Among the complications of this rare condition are local lymphedema and lymphangioma. A case of scrotal lymphedema and lymphangioma following chronic hidradenitis suppurativa in the genital area is described. Excisional skin biopsy was compatible with secondary lymphangioma. A resection of the scrotal mass was performed with reconstruction of the scrotum, penis and perineum
