Complaints in the last 1 year ago, sometimes she felt pain, physical examination showed a lump of cystic impression with a size of ± 5x10 cm in the epigastric region, mobile, firm boundary.

Summary

Introduction

Lymphangiomas are benign proliferation of lymph vessels, producing fluid-filled cysts produced from obstruction of the lymphatic system. Mesenterial cysts are often asymptomatic and are often detected unintentionally on abdominal examinations for other diseases and on medical checkups or found accidentally during a laparotomy.[3,4] The symptom is usually abdominal distension and can be accompanied by a palpable mass during palpation, but in some cases the mass is not found during physical examination.
