Abstract
Small bowel submucosal lymphangioma in children is extremely rare. We present the case of a 5-year-old boy with intussusception secondary to a submucosal lymphangioma in the jejunum. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of intussusception secondary to a small intestinal submucosal lymphangioma in a child.
