[Mesenteric cystic lymphangioma associated with necrosis of the Bauhin's valvula in children].
Mesenteric Cystic Lymphangiomas is a rare benign tumor. The first case was described after an autopsy in 1507 by Benivieni, an anatomist from Florence. In 1880 by Tillaux. Since then many cases have been described. None of these cases is associated with a non specific necrosis due to Bauhins' valvula compression; in the following lines we are going to describe this exceptional case.
