Lymphangiomas are rare benign lymphatic malformations. Even though these neoplasms can arise from any location and age, most of them are dominant in the head and neck of children. On the other hand, lymphangiomas are exceedingly rare in adults, especially in the gastrointestinal tract. Gastrointestinal tract lymphangiomas account for only about 1% of lymphatic malformations. Although there have been increasing cases of gastrointestinal lymphangiomas reported in recent years, cecal lymphangiomas causing intussusception in adults are rarely mentioned. In this article, we report a 27-year-old female patient with cecal lymphangiomas detected by imaging modalities and confirmed via postoperative histopathological examination.

Of 6%-8%, cerebral tumors are intracranial schwannomas, also known as neurinomas, which frequently arise from the nerve sheath. Eighth cranial nerve (CN VIII), also known as the vestibulocochlear nerve, is the site of genesis of the majority of schwannomas, which account for 80%-90% of cerebellopontine angle tumors. In this paper, we intended to describe an uncommon cystic vestibular schwannoma with multiple fluid-fluid levels. Surgical excision was performed using the translabyrinthine approach. The report highlights schwannomas’ adherence to and invasion of adjacent anatomical structures. We discuss a number of differential diagnoses, the pathophysiology of fluid-fluid levels, and the imaging features of cystic vestibular schwannomas.
