Review
Cavernous lymphangiomas are usually identified in infants and children with the majority of lesions found around the head and neck, trunk or extremities. Tumours affecting the intra-abdominal organs are rare. The authors report a case of small bowel cavernous lymphangioma arising within the jejunum of a 34-year-old woman presenting with dyspnoea and anaemia, and review the existing literature relating to this uncommon tumour.

RATIONALE
Hemolymphangioma is a benign tumor comprised of the newly-formed lymph spaces and blood vessels, which can usually be found in the head and neck of the affected children. There are few reports regarding cases with hemolymphangioma in small intestine, spleen, esophagus, and other organs.
PATIENT CONCERNS
Herein, a 55-year-old woman was presented in this study, she had complained of discomfort in the right upper abdomen for 2 months, and was discovered with a space-occupying lesion in proximal jejunum on computed tomography (CT). Eventually, the lesions were confirmed through double-balloon enteroscopy (DBE) to be located in the jejunum 60 cm away from the Treitz ligament.
DIAGNOSE
Subsequently, the small intestine was partially resected, and postoperative pathology had confirmed the diagnosis of small intestinal hemolymphangioma.
INTERVENTIONS
Excisional surgery of the lesion was planned. On surgery, the lesions were discovered to be about 33 cm to 22 cm when engorged the superficial vessels. No enlarged lymph nodes were seen at the root of the mesentery, and no obvious lesion was observed in the remaining small intestine.
OUTCOMES
Follow-up for 6 months showed no recurrence.
LESSONS
Hemolymphangioma lacks typical clinical symptoms, and the correct preoperative diagnosis of hemolymphangioma remains challenging. Due to the increasing use of endoscopic diagnostic techniques, it is expected that hemolymphangioma in gastrointestinal tract may be detected and endoluminal located before surgery more feasibly. This case report aimed to highlight the contributions of CT and DBE to an accurate preoperative diagnosis and surgical strategy planning.

Review
PURPOSE OF REVIEW
Small intestinal neuroendocrine neoplasms (siNENs) are slowly growing tumours with a low malignant potential. However, more than half of the patients present with distant metastases (stage IV) and nearly all with locoregional lymph node (LN) metastases at the time of surgery. The value of locoregional treatment is discussed controversially.
RECENT FINDINGS
In stage I to III disease, locoregional surgery was currently shown to be curative prolonging survival. In stage IV disease, surgery may prolong survival in selected patients with the chance to cure locoregional disease besides radical/debulking liver surgery. It may improve the quality of life and may prevent severe local complications resulting in a state of chronic malnutrition and severe intestinal ischaemia or bowel obstruction. Locoregional tumour resection offers the opportunity to be curative or to focus therapeutically on liver metastasis, facilitating various other therapeutic modalities. Risks and benefits of the surgical intervention need to be balanced individually.
