A 60-year-old female with a tumor of descending colon was referred to our hospital. Colonoscopy revealed submucosal tumor and computed tomography showed a 36mm cystic tumor at the descending colon. The preoperative diagnosis was lymphangioma of the colon. Since endoscopic excision was considered difficult to perform due to the large tumor size, laparoscopy-assisted colectomy was conducted. Histopathological diagnosis was cystic lymphangioma of the colon. Because lymphangioma is a benign tumor with no malignant potential, tumor resection is not necessary. However, endoscopic excision and operation are performed when the tumor becomes large or when the patient has some symptoms and the diagnosis is difficult to make. Since lymphangioma does not contain any malignant component, laparoscopy-assisted colectomy is preferable for the treatment of lymphangioma of the colon due to the minimum surgical invasiveness compared with open colectomy.
