Lymphangioma is an uncommon malformation of lymphatic system. Multiple colonic lymphangioma named as lymphangiomatosis is considered an extremely rare disease.
We report a case of colonic lymphangiomatosis presenting as recurrent right iliac fossa pain in a young female treated surgically.
Lymphangiomatosis is a rare but benign disease with a variety of presentations. There are few reported cases in the literature at present and no guidelines regarding the diagnosis or treatment of the same.
Our case demonstrates an unusual presentation of lymphangiomatosis treated surgically. Debate will remain on this rare condition.
淋巴管瘤是一种罕见的淋巴系统畸形。多发性结肠淋巴管瘤即淋巴管瘤病被认为是一种极其罕见的疾病。
我们报告一例年轻女性的结肠淋巴管瘤病病例,该患者表现为反复右下腹疼痛,并接受了手术治疗。
淋巴管瘤病是一种罕见的良性疾病,有多种表现形式。目前文献报道的病例较少,且尚无关于其诊断或治疗的指南。
我们的病例展示了经手术治疗的淋巴管瘤病的一种不寻常表现。关于这种罕见疾病的争论仍将存在。
