Abdominal lymphangioma represents an uncommon congenital anomaly. Herein, we describe an unusual case, which on routine antenatal ultrasonography masqueraded as isolated ascites. Subsequent fetal MRI at 27 weeks’ gestation implemented antenatal assessment of the lesion, prompting further investigations and straightforward postnatal treatment. Fetal MRI represents a valuable adjunct to antenatal ultrasonography for the evaluation of cystic abdominal masses.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
