Abstract
PERALES MARTINEZ, J. I. et al. Crying in a one-month-old baby: not all are crampings. Rev Pediatr Aten Primaria [online]. 2015, vol.17, n.67, pp.e209-e213. ISSN 1139-7632. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S1139-76322015000400016.
Crying infants are one of the most frequent reasons within the pediatric emergency consultation. Most cases are self-limiting but we must pay special attention to the alarm signs/symptoms to perform additional tests. We report the case of a one-month-old infant who presents bloating and rejects feeding. The imaging test shows a multicystic mass in the abdomen. Laparotomy revealed a lymphatic malformation in the middle ileum and pathology confirmed mesenteric cystic lymphangioma.
Keywords : Crying; Alarm symptoms; Lymphangioma.
