Abstract :

Abdominal cystic lymphangiomas are rare congenital benign malformations of the lymphatic system that are usually located in the mesentric area of small intestine. Intraabdominal and retroperitoneal cystic lymphangiomas are cystic benign tumours of congenital origin and thought to occur as a result of the proliferation and dilatation of the lymphatic sacs due to developmental defects of lymphatic vessels. Here we present a case report of a 48 year old female, diagnosed with a mass in abdomen and complaining of abdominal discomfort. The patient was operated and the cyst excised. The cyst was histopathologically diagnosed as mesentric cyst lymphangioma. The patient had no complaints post-operatively and was discharged on 7th day after surgery.
