Abstract: 
Cystic lymphangioma is a rare malformative benign tumor of the lymphatic vessels with various localizations. The retroperitoneal localization is less frequent compared to the mesenteric one. Its clinical presentation is polymorphic.
The diagnosis is evoked by imaging but requires histological confirmation. The treatment of choice is surgical. Cystic lymphangioma of retroperitoneal location is a rare condition.
The therapeutic management is based on complete removal of symptomatic lesions or complications to limit the risk of recurrence. Recurrence may be deferred in asymptomatic patients.
