Abstract:
A case of primary renal lymphangioma is reported. This represents the first documented example of such a lesion confirmed by immunocytochemical and ultrastructural studies. Whereas previously regarded as synonymous terms, the recognition of lymphangioma as a pathologic entity distinct from solitary multilocular cyst of the kidney appears warranted. Although rare, lymphangioma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of multicystic lesions of the kidney.
