ABSTRACT
Lymphangioleiomyomatosis is a rare disease characterized by an immature-appearing smooth muscle proliferation in the lung and along axial lymphatics. Rarely it is limited to lymph nodes, without extranodal disease. Two cases of localized nodal lymphangiomyoma in a 48 and 54 year-old women are presented: in both cases the lesion was limited to pelvic lymph nodes and it was an incidental finding during staging for tumours of the gynaecological tract.
