title: [Adrenal cystic lymphangioma. A case report].
abstract: Adrenal cysts are uncommon. A case of left adrenal cystic lymphangioma in 16 year old boy is reported. The adrenal cyst was a chance finding during radiological investigation for abdominal pain. Ultrasound and CT scan showed the cyst and suggested the correct diagnosis of cystic lymphangioma of the left adrenal gland. The patient underwent surgery and a left adrenalectomy was performed. Histology confirmed the previous diagnosis of cystic lymphangioma.
