Lymphangioma is a benign hamartomatous lesion caused by congenital malformation of the lymphatic system. This benign tumor is detected most commonly at birth or in early childhood but rarely in adults. On clinical examination, most lymphangiomas contain clear lymph fluid, but some may present as transparent vesicles containing red blood cells due to hemorrhage. In addition, lymphangioma may occ...

Lymphangioma is an abnormal collection of lymphatics that are developmentally isolated from the normal lymphatic system. Lymphangioma rarely presents as a solitary pulmonary lesion. We report a rare case of intrapulmonary cystic lymphangioma involving the upper lobe of the right lung, which presented with dyspnea in a 2-month-old infant. High-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) of the chest d...

Cystic lymphangioma of the pancreas is extremely rare, accounting for less than 1% of pancreatic tumors. Though congenital, it can affect all age groups. Cystic lympangioma occurs more frequently in females. Patients usually present with epigastric pain and an associated palpable epigastric mass. Complete excision is curative, even though, depending on the tumor location, surgery may be simple ...

Benign tumors of the tonsils occur infrequently. Lymphangiomas are rare congenital tumors of the lymphatic system, and tonsillar lymphangioma is an extremely rare occurrence. Its pathogenesis is uncertain, but history, clinical examination, and histological examination should establish the diagnosis. We present a 17-year-old white male with lymphangioma of the right tonsil. The tonsils were exc...

Among duodenal tumors, lymphangioma is relatively infrequent. In this case report, we describe the case of a 65-year-old Japanese man with duodenal lymphangioma diagnosed by esophagogastroduodenoscopy. Endoscopically, the tumor appeared as a soft submucosal tumor with white spots. When the white spots were grasped by biopsy forceps, milky liquid exuded from the tumor. Additionally, observation ...

Cystic lymphangioma is a congenital cystic malformation that occurs mostly in children. While it is mainly found in the cervix, cases in the chest wall are very rare. We report a case of cystic lymphangioma found in the chest wall of a 2-month-old girl. The patient was noted to have a tumor in the left chest wall at birth. Since it gradually increased in size, the patient was referred to our de...

Mesenteric lymphangiomas are rare abdominal masses that are seldom associated with small bowel volvulus, and especially in adult patients. We report here on an unusual case of small bowel volvulus that was induced by a mesenteric lymphangioma in a 43-year-old man who suffered from repeated bouts of abdominal pain. At multidetector CT, we noticed whirling of the cystic mesenteric mass and the ad...

We report a case of a cystic lymphangioma arising from the lesser curvature of the stomach in a 16-year-old female who initially presented with abdominal pain, nausea, and emesis. Contrast enhanced computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a large, thin-walled multicystic mass located anteromedial to the stomach, which was predominately supplied by the left gastric artery. Giv...

Lymphangioma is a congenital malformation of the lymphatic system, often involving areas of the head and neck. Patients may require surgical excision. Anaesthetic concerns include bleeding, difficulty visualising the airway, extrinsic and intrinsic pressure on the airway causing distortion, and enlarged upper respiratory structures, including the lips, tongue and epiglottis, which make airway m...

Introduction: Retroperitoneal cystic lymphangioma is a rare benign tumor of the retroperitoneal lymphatics that usually manifests in infancy. It is worth to Report of unexpected presentation especially in Adult. Case Presentation: An adult patient with Left Lower abdominal pain was referred to our hospital. Abdominal ultrasonography revealed a large, multilocular, cystic mass with an obscure ma...
