Abstract
Renal lymphangioma is a very rare lesion. A case of lymphangioma that presented as a small, hypercechoic renal mass on sonography in a child is reported. On CT, the lesion appeared as a low-density, enhancing renal mass. Despite its rarity, lymphangioma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of such a lesion. A suspected lymphangioma may be evaluated by percutaneous biopsy.Keywords
