[Lymphangiectasis of bone. Apropos of a case]. / Linfangiectasia ósea. A propósito dc una observación.

ABSTRACT

A case of osseous lymphangiectasis in a girl is presented and a review of existing literature is made. We include this illness in the group of complex vascular displasis. We mainly focus our attention on radiographic examination which is characteristic, even if not specific. Diagnosis was confirmed by osseous biopsy which is not easy to perform successfully but produced a positive result in our case. It was not possible to perform lymphography.
