An unusual presentation of a lymphatic malformation in an upper limb

Abstract

In this case report, we discuss the presentation, physical examination, imaging studies, and diagnosis of a rare vascular lymphatic malformation in the upper limb of a 3-year old child. Vascular lymphatic malformations are uncommon conditions, which can be misidentified as malignant tumours in children at first glance. The image study is essential to identify them and decide the best treatment strategy in each situation.
