Abstract
|
|
|
Acquired progressive lymphangioma is a benign lymphatic prolferation characterized clinically by gradually enlarging erythematous patches and histopathologically by dermal vascular channels with "dissection of collagen" appearance. A 30-year-old
woman
presented a 6×4cm sized. Erythematous patch on the right thigh, which had been gradually enlarging for 10 years since she had had a bur injury on the same site. Histopathologic findings of the lesion showed vascular channels forming a network in
thedermis with a "dissection of collagen" appearance. The cells lining the channels were stained with antibodies against muscle actin, factor VIII-related antigne. Ulex europaeus agglutinin I, CD34, and CD31. We made a diagnosis of acquired
progressive
lymphangioma and have been observing the course of the diseasc without specific treatment.
