Abstract

Lymphangiomas are rare benign congenital malformations of the lymphatic system. Clinical presentation varies from asymptomatic masses to acute abdominal pain. A 25-year-old female who presented with acute onset of abdominal distension and severe pelvic pain is presented. As a palpable mass was found on the pelvic examination and ultrasonography demonstrated a hypoechoic cystic mass, an ovarian malignancy was suspected. Exploratory laparotomy was performed and revealed cystic lymphangioma of the sigmoid colon. The clinical, radiological and pathological findings of the patient are discussed with a brief review of the literature.

Özet

Lenfanjiyomlar lenfatik sistemin benign konjenital malformasyonlarıdır. Klinik prezentasyon asemptomatik kitleden akut abdominal ağrıya kadar değişkenlik gösterir. Çalışmamızda akut başlangıçlı abdominal distansiyon ve şiddetli pelvik ağrı ile başvuran 25 yaşında kadın olgu sunulmaktadır. Pelvik muayenede palpe edilebilen bir kitle saptandığı ve ultrasonografide hipoekoik kistik bir kitle görüldüğü için ovaryan bir malignensiden şüphelenildi. Eksploratif laparatomi uygulandı ve sigmoid kolona ait kistik lenfanjiyom saptandı. Olgunun klinik, radyolojik ve patolojik bulguları literatürün kısaca gözden geçirilmesi eşliğinde tartışılmaktadır.
