Abstract
Lymphangioma Circumscriptum (LC), a microcystic hamartomatous lymphatic malformation is a rare benign condition characterized by the proliferation of dilated lymphatic vessels in the skin. Usually, it is congenital, but some may become clinically apparent later in life. They account for 4% of all vascular malformations. Usually seen in and around the shoulder and pelvic girdle. This case report discusses LC in a teenage girl with a 13-year-old history of painless, grouped fluid filled blisters on the right side of her chest, an uncommon site presenting after several years seeking intervention. The diagnosis was established through clinical examination and skin biopsy. With normal basic laboratory investigations, we initiated her with lesional cryotherapy as the primary efficacious intervention before planning for surgical excision. Cryotherapy is cheap, safe and easily available option.
