Lymphatic malformations are congenital malformations of the lymphatic system. They are mainly located in the head and neck area, and grow proportional to the patients' body growth. Depending on the morphology, it can be distinguished between macrocystic, microcystic and mixed lymphatic malformations. Due to their infiltrative growth, microcystic lymphatic malformations are particularly difficult to treat. Therapeutic approaches include conventional surgical resection, laser therapy, sclerotherapy and systemic drug therapies.
淋巴管畸形是淋巴系统的先天性畸形。它们主要位于头颈部，并随患者身体生长而按比例生长。根据形态学，可区分出大囊型、微囊型和混合型淋巴管畸形。由于微囊型淋巴管畸形呈浸润性生长，因此治疗尤为困难。治疗方法包括传统手术切除、激光治疗、硬化治疗和全身药物治疗。
