Lymphangiomatosis of bone--lymphographic and CT findings.
A case of lymphangiomatosis of bone associated with arachnoid cysts of the spinal cord is presented. This disease is very rare and in some cases the definitive diagnosis has been made radiologically rather than histologically. Lymphography and CT scanning showed on inflow of the oily contrast medium within the bony trabeculae. CT was also effective in detecting other anomalies that were otherwise not expected.
