Cavernous lymphangiomas are rare vascular malformations. Characteristic computed tomography (CT) findings include aggregated small cysts along lymphatic channels, aiding diagnosis in adult patients.

Area of Science:

  • Vascular Surgery
  • Radiology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Cavernous lymphangiomas are benign vascular tumors originating from lymphatic vessels.
  • Diagnosis can be challenging, often requiring a combination of imaging and histopathological evaluation.

Observation:

  • This report details three adult cases of cavernous lymphangiomas.
  • Two cases were confirmed by histopathology, and one was presumed based on imaging and cytologic findings.

Findings:

  • Characteristic computed tomography (CT) findings for cavernous lymphangiomas include multiple, aggregated, small, and tiny cysts.
  • These cysts appear along the lymphatic channels without any solid components.

Implications:

  • CT imaging demonstrating these characteristic cystic patterns can strongly suggest cavernous lymphangiomas.
