[A case of retroperitoneal cavernous lymphangioma with the content of chylous fluid].
We report a case of retroperitoneal lymphangioma in a 26-year-old man whose chief complaint was lumbar discomfort. Ultrasonography revealed pararenal cyst on his left side. At the operation, we discovered a cystic tumor between peritoneum and Gerota's fascia. Pathological study indicated cavernous lymphangioma containing chylous fluid. There has been no recurrence for a year after the operation.
