In this case presentation, we report a case of 13-year-old girl who was referred for treatment with vesicoureteral reflux (VUR), who had complaints of frequent urinary tract infections and urinary incontinence since her birth, and was diagnosed with congenital vesicovaginal fistula (CVVF). In the fistula closure procedure, multilayer repair and uretereneocystostomy with a transtrigonal approach was performed, and the patient did not have any complaints after the treatment. CVVF can usually be seen with other urogenital system anomalies. We aimed to present our unique case because of the challenging in diagnosis and association with VUR.

Cystic lymphangioma is a benign, unencapsulated tumor caused by congenital malformations of the lymphatic system. It is a rare type of hematoma that unusually causes scrotal swelling. A 3-year-old boy presented with a painless swelling in his right hemiscrotum that gradually increased over a year. The swelling was clinically evaluated as a hydrocele, but a multi-localized cystic mass filled with hemorrhagic fluid was detected on surgical exploration. A complete excision was made and histopathological evaluation revealed cystic lymphangioma. As a result, cystic lymphangioma mimicking hydrocele can be seen in children. Although it is a rare type of tumor, this pathology should be suspected during the surgical operation in the groin area.
