title: Rosaceous lymphedema: a rare variant of a common disorder.
abstract: Rosaceous lymphedema is considered to be a rare and disfiguring variant of acne rosacea. Cases remain difficult to treat and can challenge afflicted patients both cosmetically and psychologically. We describe an unusual presentation of rosaceous lymphedema and review the differential diagnosis of persistent facial edema.
