摘要
In adult, cystic lymphangioma of mesentery is an extremely rare manifestation of an intraperitoneal tumor. The clinical presentations of it are variable and occasionally area incidental finding. Herein, we describe a mesenteric cystic lymphangioma in a 39-year-old Iranian woman. The patient was presented with abdominal pain in the periumbilical area from 6 h earlier in the morning. Histopathological review of the excised mass revealed large numbers of cystic lymphatic channels lined by flattened endothelial cells and had smooth muscle bundles in their walls. The patient had an uneventful postoperative period. Although mesenteric cystic lymphangiomas are very rare, the clinical presentations of them are not specific. Therefore, surgeons and pathologist sensitization and awareness about these diagnostic challenges are necessary. © 2018, Springer-Verlag London Ltd., part of Springer Nature.
