Abstract

Lymphangioma circumscriptum is a rare hamartomatous condition characterized by clear vesicles which can be present at birth or soon after in localized areas of the skin. Lesions are often reminiscent of the frog spawn, grouped and in a herpetiform pattern. As vesicles of 3-4 mm in diameter may be clear, they consist of pink, red, black haemorrhage. The most common locations are proximal aspect of the limbs, buttock, groin, axillary folds,neck and oral mucosa especially the tongue. In addition to congenital lesions, acquired lesions may also occur. Such lesions are usually located vulvar and perianal area and can be seen after surgical procedures, radiation therapy and infection. In this article, three cases of congenital Lymphangioma circumscriptum which are in different locations and which shows different clinical progression are reported. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
