We report the exceptional case of a 71-year-old patient with a giant mesenteric mass causing mass effect, dyspnea and abdominal pain. After surgical resection and histopathological analysis of the specimen, the result was a cavernous lymphangioma, an unusual diagnosis due to both the location and age of presentation.
