Abstract
The cystic lymphangioma of the pancreas is an exceptional benign vascular malformation especially by its location, its diagnosis is based on imagery and confirmation is made by anatomopathological analysis. The only treatment is the most complete surgical excision possible to prevent recurrences which are frequent. We report a case of a young 26-year-old patient who presented with an atypical symptomatology made up of left lumbosciatic pain as well as abdominal pain. Abdominal MRI showed the presence of a large cystic mass and the anatomopathological examination of the surgical specimen after complete excision confirmed the diagnosis of cystic lymphangioma of the pancreas.
