ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Hemolymphangioma is a very rare benign tumor in clinical practice caused by abnormalities of the vasculature. Its clinical features are often atypical, and it is easy to miss and misdiagnose. When the time of nuclear magnetic T1 is significantly reduced, the diagnosis of hemangioma should be considered. Therefore, we report this case in the hope of raising clinicians' awareness of the disease. CASESUMMARY:
A 37-year-old man presented with a giant retroperitoneal hemolymphangioma. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging indicated the possibility of a large perirenal lymphatic cyst. The postoperative pathological diagnosis is retroperitoneal hemolymphangioma. The patient underwent surgical excision after adequate drainage. The postoperative recovery was smooth and there were no complications. There was no recurrence during half a year of follow-up.CONCLUSION:
This case reiterates that large retroperitoneal cystic masses with significantly shortened nuclear T1 time should be considered hemolymphangioma. Specific clinical basis and experience for the diagnosis and treatment of these diseases is necessary.
