Résumé

Lymphangioma are benign, slow-growing and rare lymphatic tumors, which may emerge at any location in the body with ovary being a very rare location. Axillary region and neck are the most common sites, while retroperitoneum and mesentery account for <1%. We present a case of a young female of 33 years who had symptomatic pelvic mass and was presented with a complaint of lower abdominal pain of six-month duration and weight loss. Investigation revealed an oval-shaped complex cystic density lesion in the right adnexal region, which was likely neoplastic. Elective laparotomy with right ovarian cystectomy was performed. Histopathological examination revealed ovarian lymphangioma.
