Mesenteric cysts are pathologies whose embryological origin is multiple and clinical presentation is unclear, most often diagnosed incidentally or by exclusion of other diseases. The third part is diagnosed before 15 years of age and tends to be benign, but recurrence is high when surgical treatment does not dry the entire lesion.  A 17-year-old patient was reported in this paper who admitted to the Central Hospital of Benguela, Angola with the diagnosis of abdominal tumor. Imaging studies which were conducted were inconclusive. In exploratory laparotomy one mesenteric cyst confirmed by pathologic study was found. The final treatment was the excision of the cyst.

Palabras clave : mesenteric cyst; lymphangioma; mesothelioma.
