Abstract

Lymphangiomas are uncommon, hamartomatous malformations of the lymphatic system that involve the skin and subcutaneous tissues. The most common type is lymphangioma circumscriptum. Vulvar lymphangioma circumscriptum (LC) is a rare entity which may present as a painful, warty lesion with sexual dysfunction and infection as a common presenting symptoms. Congenital form occurs in children while the acquired form arises in older adults and may be associated with infection, cancer, Crohn's disease, or prior pelvic surgery. We present a case of acquired LC of the vulva in a 73-year-old woman who presented with a one-year history of vulvar lesion and itching and following surgery and radiotherapy for endometrium cancer. Distinguishing LC from other conditions such as genital warts is important for optimizing patient outcomes, by recognizing any underlying conditions and treating them accordingly. So it is important to recognize the clinical presentation as well as the distinct histological appearance of this rare benign entity

Özet

Lenfanjiomalar, cilt ve ciltaltı dokuyu etkileyen lenfatik sistemin nadir görülen hamartomatöz malformasyonlarıdır. En sık görülen tip Lenfanjiyoma sirkumskriptumdur.Vulvar lenfanjiyoma circumscriptum (LC), yaygın görülen semptomları cinsel işlevbozukluğu ve enfeksiyon ile ağrılı, siğil bir lezyon olarak ortaya çıkabilen nadir birdurumdur. Konjenital formu çocuklarda görülürken, edinilmiş formu enfeksiyon,kanser,Crohn hastalığı, geçirilmiş pelvik cerrahiye bağlı olarak erişkinlerde oluşabilir.Bu yazıda, endometrium kanseri nedeniyle cerrahi tedavi sonrası bir yıldır vulvarlezyon ve kaşıntı şikayeti olan 73 yaşında kadın hastada edinilmiş tipte LS olgusunusunduk. LS’yi genital siğil gibi diğer durumlardan ayırt etmek, hastalığın gidişatınıdeğerlendirmek ve altta yatan hastalığın teşhis ve tedavisini uygulamak açısındanönemlidir. Bu nedenle, bu nadir benign durumun klinik görünümünün yanında farklıhistolojik görünümünü de tanımak önemlidir.
