Extensive Lymphangioma Circumscriptum of Lower Leg: A Rare Case Report
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Medical Case Reports - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Lymphangioma circumscriptum is a rare benign lymphatic malformation arising from sequestration of lymphatic tissue which is not communicated with the rest of the lymphatic channels. It was classified into localized (smaller), classical (extensive), and spongy subtypes. Most common locations are proximal part of limbs, axilla, shoulders, groins and buttocks but distal part of limbs is a rare site. We report a case of 25 year old female with an extensive subtype of lymphangioma circumscriptum of distal part of lower leg.
