Bilateral perirenal lymphangioma: a conservative approach.
The lymphangioma is a well-recognized benign tumor most frequently encountered in infancy and childhood. The kidneys are rarely involved. Despite its benign nature, most of the patients were treated by partial or radical nephrectomy. We describe a case of bilateral perirenal lymphangioma in a 33-year-old man for whom we chose a conservative approach.
