RESUMO
Lymphangioma is a common pathology in children, however intra-abdominal cystic lymphangioma is rare. Morphology and clinical symptoms are variable and can be mixed up with other etiology. Ultrasound can make the diagnosis in the majority of the cases. Surgery is the best choice of treatment and prognosis is in general good. Authors present eight cases in a period of fifteen years, all of them treated surgically. Results were good in seven cases. One late death was observed.
