Abstract

Lymphangioma circumscriptum (L.C.) is a rare lymphatic malformation characterized by the presence of ectatic lymphatic channels in the skin. It typically presents as raised vesicles or nodules on the skin and can be present anywhere on the body. The diagnosis of L.C. is made by clinical examination and confirmed by histopathological examination. In this case report, we describe the histopathological findings with L.C. who presented with multiple raised vesicles. Microscopic examination of the skin biopsy showed focal atrophic epidermis, dilated thin lymphatic channels, eosinophilic proteinaceous fluid-like material, intervening fibrosis, andlymphocytic infiltration. The diagnosis of L.C. was confirmed based on the characteristic histological features. Management options include conservative management with topical and intralesional corticosteroids, surgical excision, or laser therapy, depending on the extent of the lesions. Early diagnosis and appropriate management of L.C. are crucial to prevent complications and improve patient outcomes.
