@entity2696 constitute a group of very rare diseases and occur with a frequency of 1/250,000 to 1/20,000 of hospitalizations. Even though they are benign lesions, their complications may turn into a life-threatening condition. They usually occur in @entity1 (90%), they are either congenital or they appear before the @entity1 's second birthday. Occassionally they are found in adults. @entity2696 are usually localized around neck, but also near armpits and in the groin area. Less than 1% of lymphagiomas are detected in the retroperitoneal space and intestinal mesentery. @entity455 derived from lymphatic vessels can be divided into ordinary ones, usually known as capillary, cavernous, and cystic. The @entity5 ( @entity2696 mesenteri) is the least common. It occurs mostly in the retroperitoneal space, mesentery of the colon, or extremely rarely in the mesentery of the small intestine. Preoperative diagnosis is difficult due to non-specific clinical symptoms and noncharacteristic image in the diagnostic tests. @entity2696 complications, such as @entity1321 or perforation, and persistent @entity158 , are the cause of exploratory laparotomy. Final diagnosis requires microscopic examination of material collected during an operation. This article presented the case of a 40-year-old female, operated due to the obstruction of the gastrointestinal tract, in whose case the @entity2696 was recognised in postoperative histopathological examination of the @entity5 from the jejunal mesentery. Since @entity1 with these @entity5 have good chances of complete recovery - if there are no serious complications - it appears that the optimal therapeutic procedure should be early surgery, which reduces the possibility of complications.
