Overview
Lymphangioma arises from lymph vessels, which are normally involved in the re-circulation of excess body fluid back into the blood stream. The exact pathogenesis of lymphangioma is not fully understood. It is thought that lymphangioma is caused by either sequestration of lymph tissue, abnormal budding of lymph vessels, lack of fusion with the venous system, or obstruction of lymph vessels. Lymphangiomas most commonly develop at the head and neck regions. Lymphangioma is associated with a number of conditions that include Turner syndrome and Down syndrome.
Historical Perspective
Lymphangioma was first described by Redenbacher, and later on in 1843, Werner reported first case of cystic hygroma.
Discovery
- In 1828, Redenbacher first described a lymphangioma lesion.[1]
- In 1843, Wernher gave the first case report of a cystic hygroma.
- In 1965, Bill and Summer proposed that cystic hygromas and lymphangiomas are variations of a single entity and that its location determines its classification.
