Abstract:
Lymphangioma circumscriptum is a rare disease and the lesions are indistinguishable, clinically and histologically, from lymphangiectasis. The only difference is that lymphangiectasis is usually bilateral and develops in adult or late life, ie, condary to irradiation, surgical interruption, or some malignancies, but lymphangioma circumscriptum is congenital disease or develops soon after birth.
