Abstract
Abstract Cystic lymphangioma of the mesentery and retroperitoneum is a rare, slow-growing lesion. It produces a variety of symptoms, from an asymptomatic abdominal mass to an acute abdomen. In cases when it is possible, complete surgical excision is the optimum method of treatment. We describe a 5-year-old boy who had a brief history of abdominal pain and distension. Imaging analysis revealed an intraabdominal multiloculated cyst lesion that was likely an omental or hydatid cyst. The patient underwent surgery, and the cyst could be completely excised without any gut resection. The tumor biopsy revealed a cystic lymphangioma.
