Lymphangiomas are congenital malformations of the lymphatic system that may involve the skin, subcutaneous tissues, and intestines. They account for 4% of all vascular tumors, but comprise 25% of benign vascular growths in children. They are hamartomatous in nature and may be grouped into cutaneous lymphangioma circumscriptum (CLC), cavernous lymphangiomas, and cystic hygromas. CLC appears localized to the dermis, although frequently extends deeper and laterally. It is important to distinguish CLC, a potentially recurrent disease, from an unusual type of metastatic carcinoma of the skin called carcinoma telangiectoides.

“…Radiation therapy should be avoided, as malignant conversion is possible. 26 Sclerotherapy with hypertonic saline may be successfully employed. 40 A large review of pediatric lymphatic malformations treated with the sclerosing agent OK-432 demonstrated success in single or limited cyst malformations (<5 in number).…”

ÖZETLymphangioma circumscriptum (LC) is an uncommon type of microcystic lymphatic malformation involving the skin and mucosa caused by saccular dilatation of lymphatic channels. Patients may suffer from edema, vesiculopustular lesions and lymphatic leakage. There are many treatment methods for the management of lymphangioma circumscriptum. In this paper, we present a 10-year-old patient who had penile edema treated with split-thickness skin grafting technique.

1396Vulva Yerleşimli Lenfanjiyoma Sirkumskriptum Ö ÖZ ZE ET T Lenfanjiyom, lenfatik endotelle çevrili, dilate lenf kanallarından oluşan hamartomatöz bir oluşum olup, gerçek bir neoplazi değil, malformasyon olarak kabul edilmektedir. En sık görülen tip lenfanjiyoma sirkumskriptumdur; lezyonlar genellikle doğumda ve çocuklukta, nadiren de erişkin dönemde ortaya çıkabilir. Lenfanjiyoma sirkumskriptum daha çok ekstremite proksimalleri, gövde, karın, aksilla ve oral mukozayı tutarken, penis, vulva ve skrotum daha nadir etkilenir. Vulvar lenfanjiyoma sirkumskriptum şişlik, kanama, ağrı, deride kuruluk, kaşıntı, ekzema ve enfeksiyona yol açarak hastada psikoseksüel ve kozmetik problemlere neden olabilir. Ayırıcı tanıda herpes zoster, molluskum kontagiosum, genital verrü, leiomiyom, sellüler anjiyofibrom, anjiyofibroblastom ve agresif anjiyofibrom düşünülmelidir. Bu makalede, nadir bir bölge olan vulvada yerleşim gösteren lenfanjiyoma sirkumskriptumlu bir olgu sunuldu.A An na ah ht ta ar r K Ke el li im me el le er r: : Deri hastalıkları, vasküler; deri abnormaliteleri A AB BS ST TR RA AC CT T Lymphangioma is a hamartomatous formation comprised of dilated lymph channels surrounded with lymphatic endothelium. It is considered a malformation, not a neoplasia. The most common type lymphangioma circumscriptum usually develops at birth and in childhood, but rarely in adulthood. While lymphangioma circumscriptum commonly involves proximal parts of the extremity, trunk, abdomen, axilla and oral mucosa, penis, vulva and scrotum are involved less frequently. It may cause psychosexual and cosmetic problems in the patients by leading to swelling, bleeding, pain, xeroderma, eczema and tendency to infection. Differential diagnosis includes herpes zoster, molluscum contagiosum, genital verruca, leiomyoma, cellular angiofibroma, angiofibroblastoma and agressive angiofibroma. Herein, a rare case of lymphangioma circumscriptum located on vulva was presented.K Ke ey y W Wo or rd ds s: : Skin diseases, vascular; skin abnormalities
