Abstract

Cystic lymphangioma is a rare benign tumor of the lymphatic system with highly pleomorphic clinical features that mainly affects children. Cystic lymphomas can develop in different anatomical sites, resulting in an equivocal clinical presentation, rarely manifesting in the inguinal canal. Diagnosis is mainly based on abdominal ultrasound, supported by computed tomography. However, only pathology can confirm the diagnosis. Complete surgical resection is the treatment of choice. Cystic lymphangioma has a good prognosis overall, with an exceptionally low recurrence rate.
