Lymphangioma

We present three cases of orbital lymphangioma that were treated with sclerotherapy. Case 1: A 6-month-old boy was presented in 2010 with right ptosis and proptosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Axillary Lesion

    She underwent wide excision of the right breast and axillary lesion and the lesion pathologic finding is lymphangioma of the breast. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Inspiratory Stridor

    We present the case of a four month old male who presented with chief complaint of inspiratory stridor after a single episode of pneumonia. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Epigastric Pain

    The authors present a 49-year-old woman in whom a polycystic septated mass, 35 mm x 35 mm in size, was discovered by ultrasonography (US) in the body of the pancreas during investigations for epigastric pain and nausea. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Macroglossia

    Key words :Cystic hygroma, Lymphangioma, Macroglossia Lymphangioma is a benign, harmatomatous tumour of lymphatic vessels with a marked predilection for the head and neck region. [arabmedmag.com]

    Isolated tongue involvement can lead to macroglossia with dysphagia and airway obstruction. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

    Oral lymphangiomas occur more commonly in the anterior two-third of the tongue, resulting in macroglossia. Various other sites such as lip, palate, and buccal mucosa have been reported. [jofs.in]

  • Skin Lesion

    If you have a specific question or concern about a skin lesion or disease, please consult a dermatologist. [aocd.org]

    Definition: (1) A congenital nevoid lesion consisting of a circumscribed group of tense lymph vesicles. (2) A skin lesion that develops from enlarged lymphatic_vessels. [lymphedemapeople.com]

    Each skin lesion may range from a minute vesicle to a small bulla-sized lesion. These vesicles can be clear or vary from pink to dark red because of serosanguineous fluid and hemorrhage. [emedicine.com]

  • Vesicular Rash

    Lymphangiomas are most commonly described as a small painless mass in the neck or a vesicular rash in an infant patient. Ninety per cent of cases are diagnosed before the age of 2. Treatment usually involves surgical resection. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Gait Ataxia

    An 83-year-old woman presented with progressive gait ataxia, bilateral lower extremity weakness, and a band-like sensation in the middle and lower thoracic dermatomes. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The clinical presentation is usually subacute and diagnosis made incidentally during a workup of chronic gastrointestinal symptoms. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Pericardial Effusion

    Mediastinal lymphangioma is a rare entity and chylopericardium is a rare form of pericardial effusion. We report a case of acute chylous cardiac tamponade due to a cervicomediastinal lymphangioma in a one-year-old boy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Ovarian Mass

    However, non-ovarian lesions can be easily confused with cystic ovarian masses on imaging, which hampers diagnostic and therapeutic management. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Treponema Pallidum

    All hematological and biochemical parameters, Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and Treponema Pallidum tests, C1-Inhibitor and C1-Q values were within limits. An accurate fulguration and wide excision of bigger lesions were performed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

This report outlines our approach to workup and treatment of this rare lesion. Case report of presentation, diagnosis and treatment is presented. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The traditional treatment of LC, surgical removal, is frequently unsuccessful with rapid relapses and should be reserved for treatment failures [ 13 ]. [dermatology.cdlib.org]

Prognosis/Outlook for Lymphangioma The prognosis for lymphangioma is excellent, but the outcome also depends on the size, type and the location of lymphangioma in the patient, some are as follows: Macrocystic lesions have the good prognosis for successful [epainassist.com]

In these cases, the etiology is related to inadequate drainage of the lymphatic vessel into the venous system. Nuchal lymphangiomas are often associated with chromosome abnormalities. [nature.com]

Etiology Pathophysiology Despite its superficial manifestations, LC is a problem of abnormal lymphatic vessels in the deep subcutaneous tissues. [clinicaladvisor.com]

Lymphangioma circumscriptum has a high recurrence rate after excision because of its deep component (see Pathophysiology ). Cavernous lymphangioma are also uncommon and usually arise during infancy. [emedicine.com]

Despite the rarity of breast cystic lymphangioma, its evaluation should be considered for prompt diagnosis and definitive treatment to prevent recurrence and complications. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prevention of Lymphangioma There are no known preventive measures for lymphangioma as it is an infection that victims or patients are born with as such cannot be prevented, but can only be managed when discovered on time. [epainassist.com]
