“…It is often difficult to distinguish it from other space-occupying diseases of the rectum, so there are huge difficulties in preoperative and intraoperative diagnosis. Preoperative diagnosis mainly relies on colonoscopy and imaging examination [4,7,[10][11][12][13] : Colonoscopy, the lesions of mucosa and submucosa can be seen as blue-purple and dark-red nodules on the surface of the intestinal mucosa and active bleeding, erosion, ulcers, congestion, and edema of the intestinal mucosa of the lesion. Endoluminal or endoscopic ultrasound can reveal thickening of the intestinal wall with multiple cystic hypoechogenicity.…”

Rationale: Gastrointestinal hemolymphangiomas are very rare, especially in the rectum. Only 3 cases of rectal hemolymphangioma, all of which are diffuse lesions, have been reported in the English literature on PubMed. Our case is the first focal lesion of the rectum. It is important for radiologists to correctly identify the imaging features of rectal hemolymphangiomas. Patient concerns: A 51-year-old woman visited our hospital because of intermittent constipation for 3 years. Diagnoses: Colonoscopy revealed a prominent lesion on the left anterior wall of the lower rectum. Transvaginal color Doppler ultrasonography showed that the posterior vaginal wall area had a mixed-echo mass, and blood flow signals of the dots and stripes could be seen. Pelvic magnetic resonance imaging showed that the cystic space-occupying lesion in the region between the left anterior wall of the lower rectum and the posterior wall of the middle and lower vagina had a clear boundary. Interventions: The patient underwent surgery to remove the rectal lesions. The surgical specimen was finally diagnosed as local hemolymphangioma by pathological analysis. Lessons: Localized hemolymphangioma of the rectum is very rare, and imaging examination is essential for the diagnosis and evaluation of the extent of lesion invasion.

“…D2-40 is only expressed in lymphangiomas and some malignant vascular tumors, which is not difficult to diagnose in combination with the above indicators. [ 11 ] The tumor cells expressed CD31 and CD34 (vascular +) and D2-40 (lymphatic +), and the pathological diagnosis of hemolymphangioma was definite.…”

Introduction. Lymphatic malformations (LM) are a congenital pathology of lymphatic vessels that arose during embryogenesis. The relevance of the research topic is due to the rarity, variety of clinical manifestations, and the lack of clinical recommendations for treatment. Aim. To evaluate our experience of surgical and conservative treatment of LM in the surgical department for newborns and infants. Materials and methods. We performed a retrospective analysis of infants with various forms of LM treated at our department from 2017 to 2022. The study protocol was approved by the local ethics committee. The patients’ parents gave written voluntary informed consent to participate in the study. Results. Depending on the form of a LM, the infants underwent conservative therapy, sclerotherapy or surgical resection of the LM. Conclusions. Genetic tests for the spectrum of overgrowth syndromes are necessary for all LM patients to clarify the etiology of the process, prevent recurrence and complications.
