RESUMO
Fetal lymphangioma is an uncommon congenital malformation that is mainly comprised of the subcutaneous tissue of the neck. This malformation can develop in other areas like the thoracic and axillary regions, though rarely. We report 6 consecutive cases of lymphatic malformation in a fetal center in Dominican Republic. In our case series fetal chest lymphangiomas were present in 2 fetuses. In addition, 2 cases of axillary lymphangiomas also involved the thoracic region. Adequate management by a multidiciplinary team is necessary to provide a better approach to delivery.

The hydatid cyst is a parasitic infection included within the category of zoonoses, in which there exists a direct or indirect relation with animals, particularly with dogs. We report a clinical case of a patient who has undergone surgery of hydatid cyst in the right hepatic lobe. Seven years later the patient presents hydatid cyst in portal vein with secondary cavernomatosis, which is a rare complication. There are few cases described in the literature. The symtomatology presented by hydatid cyst is variable and the diagnosis is made by ultrasonography, TC and/or RNM. The treatment of choice is the surgical removal of the cyst, prior to surgery Albendazol must be administered for 1-2 weeks and be maintained for 4 more weeks after surgery.
