INTRODUCTION: Intraabdominal cystic lymphangioma is a rare benign lesion with a variable clinical presentation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the natural outcome of this lesion and to propose a decision-making protocol for antenatal suspected intraabdominal lymphangioma. We also would like to emphasize the role of laparoscopy in treatment.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective study examined 14 cases of intraabdominal cystic lymphangioma in children underwent to our observation, at the Pediatric Surgery Department in Lapeyronie Hospital, Montpellier between 1996 and 2007.
RESULTS: Of the 14 patients, 12 were operated on (7 by laparoscopy and 5 in open surgery). In 2 patients we didn't perform intervention because the lesion was localized in the mesenteric root: we observed a regression of the lesion on US-scan.
CONCLUSION: The intraabdominal cystic lymphangioma is a rare lesion which is now sometimes suspected on antenatal US scan; consequently we observed at the present time an increasing number of lesion potentially asymptomatic: in these case the management has to be established and a risk-benefit balance has to be made before a surgical intervention. Our experience is limited to a small number of cases, and it is too premature to describe any final conclusion; however our suggestion is that clinical course of cystic abdominal lymphangioma is unknown, and we propose that if no complication occurs, a clinical and ultrasonographic monitoring should be done in case of mesenteric root localisation.
