When present, signs and symptoms may include abdominal pain, an increase in waist circumference, an abdominal mass, intestinal obstruction, and/or volvulus (a twisting of the intestines). The cause of Abdominal cystic lymphangioma is poorly understood. Most cases are diagnosed in people with no family history of the condition.
