Abstract EN
Lymphangiomas are rare benign tumors originating due to abnormalities that occur during the development of lymphatic system.
It is usually seen in children and young adults.
The incidence of intraabdominal lymphangiomas is very low.
We herein describe an 11-year-old female patient presented with a huge visible lump in the abdomen.
Preoperative studies, including abdominal ultrasonography and CT imaging, showed a very large multilocular cystic mass occupying the peritoneal cavity.
Surgical exploration revealed a large cystic tumor of the small bowel mesentery.
Total resection of the mass and the adjacent ileum was done.
Histopathologically, the tumor proved to be a cystic lymphangioma.
