Lipectomy for Symptomatic Relief of Lymphangioma Circumscriptum.

Smriti Shrestha1, Riyaz Shrestha1, Manindra Manandhar1.   

Abstract

We present two cases of lymphangioma circumscriptum (LC) that demonstrated characteristics of half-and-half lacunae or hypopyon sign in dermoscopy. The first case was that of a 19-year-old female patient with localized lymphangioma since childhood, presenting with continuous oozing of blood and fluid from the lesion. The second patient presented with extensive disease with verrucous growths and clear vesicles over the right chest wall. Both patients reported an impact on their quality of life due to constant oozing of the lesions. The magnetic resonance imaging showed depth and extent in localized versus extensive forms of the same condition. A lipectomy was performed on both patients to destroy subcutaneous connecting lymphatics, which caused significant symptomatic improvement in oozing of blood and fluid, which had been present since childhood in both patients. However, we observed a recurrence in the second patient after six months.
