INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Mesenteric cysts are a rare group of intra-abdominal tumors located in the mesentery or omentum, most of this lesion are asymptomatically but occasionally presents with non-specific symptoms, which makes diagnosis difficult.
CASE PRESENTATION: We present two cases of giant mesenteric cyst in our Institution, the first case is a women of 23 years with previous gynecologic surgery with chronic abdominal pain and large abdominal mass CT showed a giant intraabdominal 30 × 25 × 15 cm, the patient went to laparotomy and a large mesenteric tumor found. The Histopathology reported a Benign cyst mesothelioma (BCM). The second case is a 47 year male with intermittent abdominal pain and abdominal CT shows a 20x21x15 cm tumor. Laparotomy was performed. Histopathology reported a large lymphangioma.
CLINICAL DISCUSSION: BCM tumors are rare intrabdominal lesions often diagnosed in premenopausal women. Its etiopathogenesis is still unclear, associated risk factors are endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease and previous pelvic surgery. Lymphangiomas are an infrequent cyst tumors. It results from a failure in the evolutionary development of the lymphatic system, often localized in the head and neck and its localization in the abdomen is even rare. The definitive diagnosis is made by histopathology.
CONCLUSION: Mesenteric cysts diagnosis if often challenge due to nonspecific symptoms and significant overlap in imaging appearance between the different entities, its diagnosis should be in mind when encounter a cystic abdominal tumor, surgical complete removal of this tumors is the optimal treatment to prevent recurrence and complications.
