Abstract :
Lymphangioma is a benign condition characterized by proliferation of the thin–walled lymphatic spaces. Incidence is 6% within the rest of the benign tumors. It is a congenital malformation. These are most frequently located in the cervical region 75%, followed by the axillary region in 20% of cases. 5% are located in abdominal region and within this the mesenteric location is the most common. Lymphangiomas are classified into three histologic types: capillary, cavernous and cystic. We report a case of a 2–year old boy who presented to our hospital in the surgery department with complaint of abdominal pain and vomiting. Whole Abdomen Ultrasonography revealed a well defined multicystic mass with few thin internal septae measuring 82x35mm with an impression of ?Lymphangioma ??Omental/mesenteric cyst. Mesenteric Lymphangioma is a rare tumor and multiple cysts are even rarer. Histopathology is the Gold standard in the diagnosis. With the best of our knowledge only few cases of multiple mesenteric lymphangiomas have been reported in the literature.
