Description

This report describes the case of a 6-year-old girl with cystic lymphangioma of the round ligament of the liver. She presented with an abdominal cyst found by ultrasonography (US) following mild abdominal pain. US, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a 2.5×10cm, sharply defined cystic lesion with internal septa from the subhepatic area below the umbilicus. The cystic lesion was diagnosed to develop from the round ligament of the liver based on the anatomical location and imaging findings. A complete excision of the lesion was performed by laparoscopic-assisted surgery. A pathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of a cystic lymphangioma. Cystic lymphangioma of the round ligament of the liver does not appear to have been previously reported in a review of the Japanese and English literature.
