Oral swellings and ulcers in neonates are a spectrum of diseases often creating a sense of anxiety among parents. Early detection, high index of suspicion, proper investigations, and prompt diagnosis can aid in accurate management of the same. Lymphangiomas are benign hamartomas which are basically malformed lymphatics do not drain into other lymphatics or veins and hence there is lymphatic accumulation and enlargement following cystically dilated spaces.

Quiste mesotelial simple gigante / Giant simple mesothelial CYST

El quiste mesotelial simple es una rara causa de quistes mesentéricos. El tamaño de estas lesiones suele ser de pocos centímetros y por tanto suele ser asintomático siendo su diagnóstico un hallazgo imagenológico o intraoperatorio. Caso clínico: Se documenta el caso de una mujer de 40 años de edad quien presenta un quiste mesotelial simple de gran tamaño y sintomático el cual fue manejado mediante resección quirúrgica completa sien-do este el tratamiento de elección. El comportamiento clínico sintomático, tener el antecedente de cirugías pelvianas y las dimensiones del tumor, hacen pensar en un mesotelioma quístico benigno. Sin embargo, el carácter unilocular permite catalogarlo como un quiste mesotelial simple. La diferenciación entre ambas lesiones no es meramente académica pues el mesotelioma quístico benigno tiene una recidiva alta y puede incluso malignizarse(AU)

The simple mesothelial cyst is a rare cause of the mesenteric cysts. The size of this lessons are usually of a few centimeters andasymptomatic so the diagnosis is based on imaging studies orintra operatory findings. Clinical case: We report a female patient of 40 years old who had a simple mesothelial cyst of big size andsymptomatic, which was managed by a complete surgical excision, being this method the treatment of choice. The symptoms that thepatient described, the previous pelvic surgery and the tumor dimensions had the characteristics of a benign cystic mesothelioma. However, the unilocular characteristic allow to categorize it like asimple mesothelial cyst. The differentiation between both lessonsis not academic due to the fact that the benign cyst mesotheliomahas a high relapse and even could become a malignant lesson(AU)
