Post-trauma lymphangiectasis of the lower limb mimicking haematoma

Lymphangiectasia of the lower limbs is a rare condition characterised by the dilation of lymphatic vessels, often resulting from damage or obstruction to deeper lymphatic structures. This disruption leads to increased lymphatic pressure. While lymphangiectasia typically manifests in the viscera, its occurrence in the lower limbs is less common but still clinically relevant.

Abstract

Lymphangiectasia of the lower limbs is a rare condition characterised by the dilation of lymphatic vessels, often resulting from damage or obstruction to deeper lymphatic structures. This disruption leads to increased lymphatic pressure. While lymphangiectasia typically manifests in the viscera, its occurrence in the lower limbs is less common but still clinically relevant.
