• W2059511570 abstract "Sir, Lymphangiomatosis is a progressive condition caused by the abnormal and extensive benign proliferation of lymphatic tissue. The lymphatic proliferation can be throughout the body where lymphatics are normally found except the brain, which does not contain lymphatic tissue. The most common effected sites are bone, lung, mediastinum, liver, spleen, and skin.[1] Lymphangiomatosis are extremely rare benign tumors of the colon. Acute abdomen mimicking appendicitis is an unusual presentation of the disease. A 25-year-old female was admitted with right lower quadrant abdominal pain diagnosed as acute appendicitis. Physical examination revealed tenderness on the right lower quadrant. Abdominal ultrasonography demonstrated multiple hypoechoic and hypervascular lesions on the right lower quadrant. Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance investigation (MRI) revealed a mass of ascending colon in 6×9 cm size [Figure 1]. There was no luminal pathology on colonoscopy examination. On exploration, multiple thin-walled cystic masses containing serous fluid were found adjacent to the caecum and ascend colon [Figure 2]. Right hemicolectomy was performed with adherent mass. The pathological investigation revealed colonic lymphangiomatosis [Figure 3]. The patient's postoperative course was uneventful and discharged at the seventh postoperative day. Lymphangiomas are focal proliferations of well-differentiated lymphatic tissue that present as multicystic or sponge-like accumulations. The colon is the rarest localization.[1] Clinical presentation of the tumor depends on its location and growth pattern. Abdominal pain, anemia, abnormal bowel habits, intussusception, and protein-losing enteropathy are the main symptoms of colonic lymphangiomatosis. Occasionally, colonic lymphangiomatosis were presented with abdominal symptoms mimicking acute abdomen.[2] To our knowledge, the current report is the first case of lymphangiomatosis of the colon mimicking acute appendicitis. Lipomas, leiomyomatosis, neurofibromatosis, and metastatic cancers should be in differentiated diagnosis.[3] Ultrasonography shows a sharply defined cystic or multiple cystic mass, often with internal septation.[4] CT and MRI are required for evaluation of the wall structure of the colon and coexisting with extracolonic lesions. Endoscopic ultrasound is a well-established, increasingly popular, and minimally invasive procedure for the assessment of submucosal tumors and also useful in differentiation of extramural lesions in the colon.[5] Essential diagnostic application is colonoscopy and required for histopathological examination. Colonic lymphangiomatosis with normal colonoscopy is extremely rare. Needle aspiration biopsy from a lymphangioma is not recommended in the diagnostic period. Malignant transformation of a colonic lymphangioma has not been reported. In reported cases after curative resection, there is no evidence of recurrence. The treatment modalities for gastrointestinal lymphangiomatosis are the endoscopic or surgical resection and symptomatic medications. Resection of the involved segment is the most preferred surgical procedure. Endoscopic treatment has become increasingly indicated recently with tumors measuring 2 cm or smaller in the maximal diameter.[1] Colonic lymphangiomatosis mimicking acute appendicitis is a rare abdominal emergency. The onset of the disease needs a high level of concern and steady supervision to reduce mortality and morbidity. This unusual presentation of colonic lymphangiomatosis should be kept in mind in the differential diagnosis of acute appendicitis and other submucosal colon tumors.Figure 1: (a) Computed tomography demonstrates a hypoechoic mass adjacent to the ceacum.
