Abstract
<p>The patient was a 51-year-old woman with chief complaints of abdominal pain and anorexia. A blood test showed a high degree of inflammation. Abdominal computed tomography showed a multifocal cystic lesion in the abdominal cavity, 119×154 mm in size, with inflammation. A diagnosis of abdominal lymphangioma with infection was made, and the patient was treated with antibiotics. The abdominal pain and inflammation disappeared with antibiotic treatment. Magnetic resonance imaging 8 weeks after onset showed that the lymphangioma had shrunk significantly to 28×68 mm. Laparoscopy showed a lymphangioma in the ascending mesocolon, and laparoscopic ileocecal resection was safely performed. The pathological diagnosis was cystic lymphangioma of colonic mesentery.</p><p>Cystic lymphangioma, which is congenital and rare in adults, tends to grow rapidly and regress after infection or bleeding. The clinical course of this case is presented along with a review of the relevant literature.</p>
