Fig. 6

A 41-year-old man with biopsy-proved intestinal lymphangiectasis and history of chylous ascites. On first MR examination the lesion has high signal on T2-weighted images (a). MR lymphography (b) shows the communication with dilated lymphatic channel (arrows). On first follow-up MR examination the lesion has lower signal on T2-weighted images (c) with very low signal intensity on MR lymphography on second follow-up (d). Low signal intensity on T2-weighted MR image is likely related to haemorrhage changes
