Treatment of lymphangioma circumscriptum with tunable dye laser.
We present the case of a patient with lymphangioma circumscriptum that was successfully treated with a flashlamp pulsed dye laser. Dermatologists are aware of the use of the pulsed dye laser for the treatment of port-wine stains and other vascular lesions. This case report illustrates the usefulness of the pulsed dye laser for the treatment of another common dermatologic condition.
