Although abdominal lymphangiomas are much less common than neck and axillary lymphangiomas, pancreatic lymphangiomas are very rare with few reports in the literature. Authors report a case of cystic lymphangioma of the pancreas. A 21-year-old man was transferred from other hospital for huge cystic mass around pancreaticoduodeneum after he had received laparotomy with diagnosis of periappendiceal abscess. Abdominal CT scan demonstrated huge mutliseptated cystic mass, which was originated from head of pancreas and occupied entire right abdominal cavity. The patient underwent pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy, which was proven to be a cystic lymphangioma of the pancreas.
