Abstract

Cystic lymphangioma of the ovary is an extremely rare neoplasm and is usually detected as an incidental finding during surgery. This mass mimics cystic tumors of the ovary such as teratoma, hemangioma or adenomatoid tumor. The case of a 31-year-old patient with intermittent abdominal pain of slight to moderate intensity is presented. Abdominopelvic ultrasound revealed a tumor with multiple cysts with a solid component inside. During laparotomy, a solid, encapsulated and gray tumor was observed. When the tumor was cut, multiple cystic spaces of different sizes and with yellow, serous fluid were observed. Histopathological examination revealed a tumor with characteristics of cystic lymphangioma of the ovary.
