Abstract
Cystic lymphangioma is one of the benign tumors that affect the lymphatic system of children, rarely adults. Its inguinal location is rare. Clinically it can simulate a picture of strangulated inguinal hernia. The diagnosis is suggested by imaging and confirmed by pathological examination after surgical excision. The treatment is based on surgery by excision of the tumor.
