Lymphography--still useful in the diagnosis of lymphangiomatosis.
Lymphangiomatosis is diagnosed by lymphography in two patients. One case presented with life threatening pleural effusion and was found to have skin haemangiomata, underlying lymphangiomatosis and massive osteolysis of the pelvic bones in the same topographic distribution. The aetiology of this condition is discussed and the role of lymphography emphasized.
