A rare abdominal cystic lymphangioma was found originating from the liver's quadrate lobe. This unique case, with dilated hepatic ducts within the cyst, has not been previously documented in medical literature.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Hepatology
  • Surgical Pathology

Background:

  • Cystic lymphangiomas are rare benign tumors originating from lymphatic malformations.
  • Hepatic lymphangiomas are exceptionally rare, with limited documented cases.

Observation:

  • A large, pedunculated abdominal cystic lymphangioma was identified arising from the quadrate lobe of the liver, adjacent to the round ligament.
  • Microscopic examination revealed dilated hepatic ducts and minimal liver tissue within the main cyst.

Findings:

  • The cystic lymphangioma presented with a unique anatomical origin from the liver's quadrate lobe.
  • Histological analysis showed an unusual association of dilated hepatic ducts within the lymphangioma's cystic structure.

Implications:

  • This case represents a novel presentation of a cystic lymphangioma with an unprecedented origin and histological features.
  • Highlights the importance of considering rare differentials in abdominal masses, even with atypical locations.
  • Contributes to the limited literature on hepatic lymphatic malformations, aiding future diagnosis and management.
