Cutaneous Lymphangioma circumscriptum - dermoscopic features*

Abstract: Lymphangiomas are congenital lymphatic malformations and cutaneous lymphangioma circumscriptum is the most common type. It is clinically characterized by clusters of translucent vesicles and the presence of dermoscopically yellow lacunae surrounded by pale septa, as well as reddish to bluish lacunae.

“…Later, they were grouped according to the depth and size of the abnormal lymphatic vessels into two categories: superficial, represented by cutaneous lymphangioma circumscriptum (CLC), and deep, with cavernous lymphangioma and cystic hygroma . Lymphangiomas represent 4% of the vascular tumors and around 25% of benign vascular tumors in childhood . This congenital malformation is apparent at birth in approximately 50% of cases .…”
