Abstract

Lymphoceles that do not resolve spontaneously or with treatment may be a major problem associated with a high degree of morbidity. Several imaging studies, including ultrasonography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, lymphography, lymphoscintigraphy, and intraoperative lymphatic mapping have been proposed to delineate lymphoceles before treatment. The present report describes the successful detection of three lymphoceles of the inguinal region with leaking lymphatic vessels by means of high-resolution MR lymphangiography.
