Lymphoscintigraphy is a safe, minimally invasive, and well-established imaging modality for evaluating lymphatic drainage in patients with suspected lymphedema. We report a case of an 8-year-old girl with lymphangioma circumscriptum of the labium majora. She was referred to lymphoscintigraphy for swelling of the lower extremities. Scintigraphy showed widespread dermal backflow at bilateral lower limbs, aberrant uptake in the abdominal lymph nodes, and unexpected uptake in the right axillary lymph nodes.
淋巴闪烁显像术是一种安全、微创且成熟的影像学方法,可用于评估疑似淋巴水肿患者的淋巴引流情况。我们报告了一例 8 岁女孩大阴唇局限型淋巴管瘤病例。因下肢肿胀,该患者被转至淋巴闪烁显像术检查。显像显示双侧下肢弥漫性真皮逆流,腹部淋巴结摄取异常,以及右侧腋窝淋巴结意外摄取。
