Abstract :
Lymphangioma is a rare, benign neoplasm of vascular origin that presents during childhood and can appear anywhere, with the capacity to spread to adjacent organs. This report presents the case of a 7-year-old male with lymphangioma recurrence one month after resection. Surgical treatment was performed, followed by conservative management. The patient had a satisfactory outcome and was discharged from the angiology service three months later without recurrence.
