Résumé

The increasing number of endoscopic explorations help recognize rare lesions of the gastrointestinal tract, such as lymphangiomas, rare benign vascular tumours in adults. Patients with lymphangioma are generally asymptomatic but if complications arise, the approach is endoscopic or surgical. Endoscopic ultrasound aids in distinguishing this tumour from other subepithelial lesions. We present the case of a patient who underwent upper endoscopy and endoscopic ultrasound with findings of two duodenal lymphangiomas.
