Area of Science:

Oncology
Vascular Malformations
Surgical Pathology

Background:

Lymphangioma, a benign tumor from lymphatic malformation, typically affects children under 2, primarily in the head and neck.
Retroperitoneal lymphangioma in adults represents a rare clinical presentation.
Obstruction of lymphatic channels leads to lymphangiectasia, a characteristic of lymphangioma.

Observation:

A 41-year-old female presented with non-specific symptoms including upper abdominal discomfort, nausea, vomiting, and anorexia for 1.5 years.
The patient was managed surgically at Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University.
Surgical intervention involved exploratory laparotomy and cyst de-roofing.

Findings:

Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of lymphangioma.
The tumor was located in the retroperitoneal space.
The patient's symptoms were attributed to the retroperitoneal lymphangioma.

Implications:

This case underscores the importance of considering rare diagnoses in adult patients with vague abdominal symptoms.
Surgical management, including de-roofing, can be effective for retroperitoneal lymphangioma.
Further research into the etiology and optimal management of adult retroperitoneal lymphangioma is warranted.
