We report a 4-year-old child with a mesenteric mass, which on ultrasound, CT and conventional MRI appeared solid, raising lymphoma as a possible diagnosis. Diffusion weighted MRI (DW-MRI), however, suggested a low-cellularity lesion, making lymphoma less likely. Biopsy confirmed lymphangioma. DW-MRI may be a useful adjunct to conventional imaging, even in the abdomen.
我们报告了一名4岁患有肠系膜肿块的儿童，该肿块在超声、CT和传统MRI上显示为实性，这使得淋巴瘤成为一种可能的诊断。然而，扩散加权MRI（DW-MRI）提示为低细胞性病变，使得淋巴瘤的可能性降低。活检证实为淋巴管瘤。即使在腹部，DW-MRI也可能是传统成像的有用辅助手段。
