Twelve patients with primary lymphedema of the lower limb were examined with computed tomography (CT). A characteristic "honeycomb" pattern of the subcutaneous compartment was seen in 10 of these patients. CT scans in nine other patients with swollen leg secondary to chronic venous disease or lipedema did not show this characteristic pattern. CT may be helpful in the differential diagnosis of a swollen leg, thus obviating venography or lymphangiography.
对12例原发性下肢淋巴水肿患者进行了计算机断层扫描（CT）检查。其中10例患者的皮下组织出现了特征性的“蜂窝状”模式。另外9例因慢性静脉疾病或脂肪性水肿导致腿部肿胀的患者，其CT扫描未显示出这种特征性模式。CT在腿部肿胀的鉴别诊断中可能会有帮助，从而避免进行静脉造影或淋巴管造影。
