We report a female infant with congenital lymphedema, facial anomalies, intestinal lymphangiectasia consistent with a diagnosis of Hennekam syndrome. At birth the patient presented with severe respiratory distress due to nonimmune hydrops fetalis, a congenital chylothorax (CC), and pulmonary lymphangiectasia. Hydrops fetalis may be present in newborns with the Hennekam syndrome. Lymphoscintigraphy can be useful in explaining pleural-pulmonary involvement of this generalized lymph vessel malformation syndrome.
我们报告了一名患有先天性淋巴水肿、面部异常、肠道淋巴管扩张的女婴,符合亨内坎综合征的诊断。出生时,该患者因非免疫性胎儿水肿、先天性乳糜胸(CC)和肺淋巴管扩张而出现严重呼吸窘迫。亨内坎综合征的新生儿可能出现胎儿水肿。淋巴闪烁显像有助于解释这种全身性淋巴管畸形综合征的胸膜-肺部受累情况。
