Two cases of distinctive, multiple, solid lymphangioma of spleen are described. Both lesions occurred in young Chinese females who presented with pain and a mass in the left upper quadrant of the abdomen. The nature of this lesion is discussed and we believe that it is basically a malformation with proliferative capacity. We are not aware of any similar case reports in the English literature.
