A patient age five years, nine months with cystic lymphangioma was studied to determine the causes of malocclusion and the optimum time for its treatment. The main findings were unilateral anterior and posterior crossbite and displacement of the mandibular midline due to maxillary deformity and mandibular rotation. The force of the cystic lymphangioma mass caused deformity of the maxilla and rotation of the mandible. The patient had no functional impairment of speech or mastication. A decision was made to defer treatment of malocclusion until complete surgical excision of the cystic lymphangioma can be undertaken, thereby minimizing the chance of malocclusion re-occurrence.
对一名5岁9个月患有囊性淋巴管瘤的患者进行了研究，以确定错牙合畸形的原因及其最佳治疗时间。主要发现为单侧前后牙反牙合以及由于上颌骨畸形和下颌骨旋转导致的下颌中线移位。囊性淋巴管瘤肿块的压迫导致上颌骨畸形和下颌骨旋转。该患者在言语或咀嚼方面没有功能障碍。决定推迟对错牙合畸形的治疗，直到能够对囊性淋巴管瘤进行完全手术切除，从而将错牙合畸形复发的可能性降至最低。
