摘要
This article describes the rare condition of scrotal lymphedema (elephantiasis) in a Caucasian man. To our knowledge, this is the most giant form of scrotal elephantiasis that was ever described in Germany. Aim of this case report is to present an appealing aesthetic possibility of surgical treatment and reconstruction of the genitals while preserving the testes.
