Retroperitoneal cystic lymphangioma in an aged man: report of a case and review of the literature
Abstract
- Retroperitoneal cystic lymphangioma is a rare benign tumor which had previously been difficult to diagnose preoperatively by conventional radiographic technique(1). Recent reports describe the computed tomographic and ultrasonographic findings in cystic lymphangioma(1,2). We report a case of retroperitoneal cystic lymphangioma, accurately diagnosed by lymphography, with computed tomographic findings and percutaneous drainage findings. To the best of out knowledge, this is the most aged case of retroperitoneal cystic lymphangioma of preoperatively diagnosed.
