Abstract

A 41-year-old male who experienced right lower quadrant pain revealed an ileocecal tumor on barium enema. This tumor occupied inner half of cecal wall, protruded into the lumen and changed shape and size on compression. Tumor size was 6.7 ×5.0 ×3.0 cm, extending from the submucosa to the serosa. Histologically this tumor was diagnosed as cystic lymphangioma.
