[Omentum minus cystic lymphangioma: report of a case and a literature review]
Abstract
Lymphangiomas are rare benign tumors. In most cases, resection is necessary to obtain a precise histopathological analysis. There are capillary, cavernous and cystic lymphangiomas. The therapy of choice is a complete excision. Recurrence has been reported after incomplete resection. We present the case of a 45-year-old man with a lymphangioma of the omentum minus and -review the literature.
