Conclusions and result (Outcome and follow up)
After surgical resection of the mass and a hospital stay of 5 days, the patient was discharged with significant improvement and no post operative complications. On follow up, the patient had no longer pain and no palpable mass imaging after 1 month showed no recurrence.
This case of a super-infected cystic omental lymphangioma in a nine year old male who had long-standing recurrent symptoms underscores the need for increased awareness of the atypical presentations. It also highlights the need for early diagnostic imaging studies for pediatric patients with recurrent abdominal pain. Continued research into the etiology, age and types of presentations, optimal management of omental lymphangiomas will enhance patient outcomes and inform clinical practice. With comprehensive follow-up and tailored management strategies, patients can achieve favorable results.
