title: [A case of cystic lymphangioma of the liver].
abstract: Here is a case report about a cystic lymphangioma of the liver, a rare benign tumor, extremely difficult to diagnose with certainty in spite of the wide range of examinations today available. Surgical intervention is still the most important means to achieve the final diagnosis. The authors also provide a discussion about the pathogenesis and the clinical manifestation of the disease.
