Lymphangioma circumscriptum (LC) is a rare, benign condition, predominantly characterized by the malformation of lymphatic skin vessels. The most common sites include the oral mucosa, tongue, skin of the extremities and torso. Lymphangioma of the penis is rare disease. In the paper a clinical case of cystic lymphangioma of the penis, which was initially diagnosed as herpes and human papillomavirus infection, is described. Early diagnosis of skin tumors of anogenital area allows to prescribe a timely therapy. After the CO2-laser vaporization there was no recurrence during the 6-month follow-up period.
