Article Synopsis
- Lymphangiomas are rare benign tumors that are primarily treated through surgical excision for complete removal, with diagnosis confirmed by imaging and histology.
- A case study involved a 25-year-old man who experienced abdominal pain and was found to have a large cystic mass in the mesentery, which required a surgical procedure that sacrificed part of the intestine.
- Following surgery, the patient recovered well and had no recurrence of the tumor during a three-year follow-up, highlighting the importance of complete removal to prevent complications.
