Abstract:
A retroperitoneal lymphangioma is a rare tumor, most commonly affecting the neck or axillary area. We report a case of a 60-year-old man, with left flank pain, who had a retroperitoneal cavernous lymphangioma, with hemorrhagic complication. The diagnosis was made after complete excision of the tumor, followed by pathologic documentation.
