Hemolymphangioma
is a rare disease with malformation of both lymphatic and vascular vessels. Few cases of
hemolymphangioma
occurring in the rectum, small intestine, pancreas, esophagus, and other organs have been reported. Nevertheless, multiple
hemolymphangioma
of the visceral organs are extremely rare. We report a 25-year-old female with a significantly
enlarged spleen
full of multiple-rounded lesions. Curiously, the splenic flexure and even retroperitoneum had many lesions. The patient recovered well after splenectomy and the pathologic diagnosis of spleen was
hemolymphangioma
with abnormal lymphatic and blood vessels with polycystic spaces.Usually, it is hard to cure this disease. We should take much more consideration into the diagnosis, treatment, and even pathogenesis, even though it is a benign lesion.
