Congenital lymphangioma symptoms?

summary

Lymphangioma (lymphangioma) is a kind of benign tumor, which is mainly composed of lumens arranged by endothelial cells and filled with lymph. Because of the different tissue structure, it can be divided into three types: capillary lymphangioma, sponge lymphangioma and cystic lymphangioma. According to clinical observation, the author found that adult onset is also common, tumor growth is slow, self regression is extremely rare. The symptoms of congenital lymphangioma will be discussed now.

Congenital lymphangioma symptoms?

Capillary lymphangioma is called simple lymphangioma. It occurs frequently in the skin and oral mucosa. It is often the size of soya bean, and its color is light yellow and transparent. When it is damaged, mucoid fluid flows out. Sometimes it is mixed with small blood vessels and appears light red or purplish red. Most of them gather in groups. The surface of undamaged lymphangioma is smooth, soft and compressible.

Cavernous lymphangioma is the most common, mainly composed of dilated and flexed lymphangiomas. It occurs in the skin, subcutaneous tissue and intermuscular connective tissue space. The epidermis is mostly unchanged, compressible and soft. Multilocular cysts are interlinked with each other. The structure is like sponge. The most common disease is in the head and neck, followed by the lower limbs, arms, armpits and trunk.

Cystic lymphangioma, also known as hydroma, is a kind of congenital cyst full of lymph, which is not connected with the surrounding normal lymphatic vessels. It mainly comes from the embryonic vagal lymphoid tissue. It mainly occurs in the posterior triangle of the neck, but it can extend to the posterior clavicle, axillary, mediastinum and other parts. Upward, it can extend to the submaxillary, floor of mouth, groin and popliteal fossa. It often grows slowly and is as big as a fist, Because there is no adhesion with the skin, the surface of the tumor has no change, the nature is soft, cystic, lobulated structure, can be transparent, slightly compressible, with needle puncture can extract grass yellow cholesterol crystal liquid, transparent, quickly solidified, similar to the nature of lymph, without swelling and compression, without any clinical symptoms, When the volume is too large, depending on the growth site of cystic lymphoma, it will produce related symptoms. Secondary infection and diffuse swelling can aggravate the compression symptoms.

matters needing attention

① Reduce infection as much as possible, avoid exposure to radiation and other harmful substances, especially drugs that inhibit immune function; (2) exercise properly, strengthen the physique and improve the ability of disease resistance.
