Lymphatic malformations are congenital vascular malformations of the lymphatic channels. These most commonly present in the skin and subcutaneous tissue. Cavity chylous accumulation is also reported. Solid organ affection by lymphatic malformation is possible but extremely rare. We report a case of a newborn diagnosed by antenatal ultrasound to have a left suprarenal mass. He was treated postnatally by surgical resection. A literature review and discussion of treatment options follows.
