Experience with lymphangioma

Lymphology. 1978 Jun;11(2):43-8.

Abstract

Lymphangioma is a rare and benign tumor, mostly encountered in childhood. Our experience extends to 21 patients, all of which were operated upon. Early radical excision in moderate forms or cervical locations and delayed excision or combined management in complex cervical forms are the more preferable way of treatment.
