Article Abstract
The present case report describes the incidental discovery of cecal lymphangioma, a rare benign neoplasm originating from malformations of lymphatic vessels. Lymphangiomas are uncommon in the gastrointestinal tract, and their presence in the colon is particularly unusual. This finding adds to the limited literature on colonic lymphangiomas and emphasizes recognizing these unusual lesions. Further research is needed to understand better their clinical characteristics, potential complications, and optimal management strategies, especially in atypical locations such as the colon.
