Lymphangioma is an uncommon lesion which is widely believed not to undergo malignant change. Lymphangiosarcoma is even rarer and most of the cases reported in the literature were encountered in the setting of chronic lymphoedema, although occasional cases have been reported in irradiated lymphangiomata. This brief communication describes a case of multifocal lymphangiosarcoma arising in a non-irradiated, long standing lymphangioma of the hand. To our knowledge no similar case has been reported previously in the English literature, which is briefly reviewed.
淋巴管瘤是一种罕见的病变，人们普遍认为它不会发生恶变。血管肉瘤更为罕见，文献报道的大多数病例都发生在慢性淋巴水肿的背景下，尽管偶尔也有在接受过放射治疗的淋巴管瘤中发生的病例报道。本简短通讯描述了一例多灶性血管肉瘤，发生于手部未经放射治疗的长期存在的淋巴管瘤。据我们所知，此前英文文献中尚未报道过类似病例，本文对此进行简要综述。
