    Abstract Background: Generalized cystic lymphangiomatosis (GCL) is a rare disease characterized by the widespread proliferation of lymphatic vessels, often seen in the pediatric patient group. Imaging techniques are instrumental in revealing the extent and morphological features of the disease.
    Objective: The objective of this study is to interpret the radiological findings of GCL and address the differential diagnosis between GCL and other lymphatic malformations in light of the relevant literature data.
    Methods: The sample of this retrospective study consisted of six pediatric patients, four males and two females, diagnosed with GCL based on clinical, radiological, and histopathological findings between 2015 and 2022. The age of the patients at the time of diagnosis and their symptoms at admission were obtained from the hospital database. Radiological imaging findings were evaluated in detail based on the involved systems (thorax, abdomen, and musculoskeletal).
    Results: The median age of the sample, 4/6 were male, was 9 years at admission (min. 3, max. 12). The most common symptom at admission was dyspnea, often accompanied by pleural effusion. Bone involvement was the most common extrathoracic finding. Abdominal involvement was primarily asymptomatic, and the spleen was the most frequently involved organ in the abdomen.
    Conclusion: The diagnosis of GCL is challenging because of its rarity and overlapping diseases. Whole-body magnetic resonance imaging is a valuable tool as it reveals the typical radiological features of GCL and how far it has spread throughout the body.

    Abstract Lymphangiomas are rare benign tumours of lymphatic vascular origin. They are more common in the paediatric population and manifest mainly in the neck and axillary region. Retroperitoneal lymphangiomas are <1% and pancreatic origin is even rarer. We present a case of a pancreatic cystic lymphangioma in a 60-year-old woman with chronic diffuse symptoms, diagnosed because of newly onset of diabetes mellitus. She was successfully managed with distal pancreatectomy and spleenectomy en-bloc with the cystic mass without any complications. Cystic lymphangioma of the pancreas is a rare entity presenting with a challenging preoperative diagnosis as imaging modalities may provide ambiguous information. The clinician should be aware of its complicated differential diagnosis and its persistent and subtle symptomatology.

    Abstract Cystic lymphangioma presenting with multiple bone lesions in an adult patient is a rare occurrence, with a limited number of reported cases in the literature. In this case report, we describe a 32-year old female patient with chronic neck and pelvic pain, and multiple lytic bone lesions on radiological imaging, which were eventually discovered to originate from cystic hygroma and widespread bone lymphangiomas that were present for more than 10 years. It should be kept in mind that there may be multiple benign causes of differential diagnosis in patients presenting with findings suggestive of diffuse bone metastasis. Misdiagnosis may cause the patient to receive unnecessary treatments, especially radiotherapy. In this case, we reached the diagnosis of benign disease, diffuse bone lymphangiomatosis. For this purpose, we also examine the long and stable medical history of the patient with the findings of BT, ultrasound, and bone scintigraphy. We think that as long as there are no stable and serious results ofclinical and radiological findings of the patient, the patient should be approached with medical follow-up without treatment.

    Abstract Purpose: Cystic lymphangioma of the pancreas was first recognized in 1913 as a form of benign cyst. It is extremely rare, accounting for less than 1% of the lymphangiomas.
    Case report: Herein, we report a case of cystic pancreatic lymphangioma diagnosed in a 51-year-old female patient who was hospitalized for a colicky upper abdominal pain for a month. Radiological imaging revealed a large multiloculated cystic pancreatic mass with enhancing septations. The patient underwent distal pancreatectomy, and the histological examination showed cystic lymphangioma.
    Conclusion: Although very uncommon, cystic lymphangioma should be placed in the differential diagnosis list of pancreatic cystic lesions, at least about the multi-septated ones in asymptomatic female patients which are discovered incidentally.

    Abstract Introduction and importance: Cystic hygromas are congenital lymphangiomas that arise from a developmental anomaly in the lymphatic system. Typically detected in early childhood, their incidence in adolescents and at the chest wall or axillary area is rare.
    Case presentation: We report two cases, a 14-year-old male child (Case I) and a 1-year-old male infant (Case II), who presented with swelling in unusual locations, the right axillary region and the right anterolateral chest wall respectively. Local examination findings were indicative of a cystic hygroma in the first case, while in the second case, characteristic transillumination was not seen due to a complication: hemorrhage within the cyst. The diagnoses were established after a correlation of the patient's history, and clinical findings with radiological investigations. Both underwent surgical intervention and had no complications. Histopathology of the post-operative specimens confirmed the diagnoses.
    Discussion: The diagnosis of cystic hygroma is made in the totality of thorough history taking, clinical examination, and radiological and histopathological investigations. Though most cases typically manifest before the age of two years and in the cervicofacial area, unusual locations and delayed presentation can occur. Surgical excision is a safe and effective treatment modality for these lesions.
    Conclusion: Although a rare entity, cystic hygroma should be considered a possible differential diagnosis of any swelling in the pediatric population.

    Abstract Lymphangioma is a congenital malformation of the lymphatic system most often reported in children. Its occurrence in adults is rare. It usually develops in the head, neck, and axillary region. It mimics other conditions, such as cold abscess, simple cyst, hydatid cyst, and hemangioma, on clinical examination. Here, we report a case of cystic lymphangioma in the axillary region of a 32-year-old male. The patient underwent surgical excision and histopathology confirmed cystic lymphangioma. Although it is very rare in adults, cystic lymphangioma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of an axillary mass.

    Abstract Abstract Background Lymphangiomas are benign vascular tumors arising from the lymphatic system. They commonly affect the head and neck regions. Pancreatic involvement is extremely rare. Even though they are rare, it should be considered as a differential diagnosis for patients who present with pancreatic mass. Case presentation We report the case of a 6-year-old African male patient who presented with abdominal mass and dull aching pain of 6 months duration. He was examined and underwent excision, with biopsy showing pancreatic lymphangioma. Conclusion These tumors are benign and slow growing and have potential to regress spontaneously. Thus, most literature agrees that surgical interventions should be reserved for symptomatic cases.

    Abstract Abdominal cystic lymphangioma is a rare benign tumour in children. It is often difficult to diagnosis pre-operatively due to a varied spectrum of symptoms. We report a case of a male infant who presented with gross bilateral inguinoscrotal swelling. Provisional diagnosis of congenital communicating hydrocele was made and investigation revealed a large abdominal cyst. Patient underwent explorative laparotomy and the cyst arising from greater omentum, extending into bilateral scrotum, was excised and bilateral herniotomy done. Mass was confirmed to be lymphangioma on biopsy. This case is unique as an abdominal lymphangioma presented solely as inguinoscrotal swelling, with no abdominal symptom. To our knowledge, this is the first case of omental cystic lymphangioma involving both inguinoscrotal regions. Our case suggests that abdominal cystic lymphangioma should be a part of the differential diagnosis in any child with gross inguinoscrotal swelling in whom initial impression is of communicating hydrocele.
