Konjenital Kalvaryal Lenfanjiom: Olgu Sunumu

Kalvaryal kavernöz lenfanjiom çok az sayıda yayında bildirilmiş ve son derece nadir rastlanan bir klinik antitedir. Lenfanjiomlar vücudun birçok yerinde görülse de lenfanjiomlarla sıklıkla boyun ve uzun kemiklerde karşılaşılır ve literatürde lenfanjiomların birçok tipi tanımlanmıştır. Lenfanjiomlar için birçok tedavi seçeneği tanımlansa da lokal nüks hala büyük bir problemdir. Pediatrik popülasyonda kafatası defektleri sıklıkla kraniyoplasti gerektirir. Allogreft veya otolog kemik greftleri kraniyoplasti için bir seçenektir. Dört aylık erkek bir hasta, kraniyal bilgisayarlı tomografide kalvaryal veya ekstrakraniyal dış kabuğu kalsifiye bir lezyon görünümünde, ağrısız bir kitlesel lezyon nedeniyle hospitalize edildi. Hastaya cerrahi rezeksiyon uygulandı ve patoloji ile kavernöz lenfanjiom tanısı doğrulandı. Biz bu olguyu görüntüleme bulguları ve mevcut literatürün değerlendirilmesi ile sunuyoruz.

Congenital Calvarial Lymphangioma: A Case Report

Calvarial cavernous lymphangioma is an extremely rare disease entity with only a few reports. Lymphangiomas are frequently encountered neck and long bone but it may also seen in many part of the body and many tips of the lymphangioma have been identified. Several treatment options have been defined but local recurrence is still a big problem. In the pediatric population, postoperative skull defects may frequently require cranioplasty. Allografts or autologous bone grafts may be used for cranioplasty. A four-month-old male patient was hospitalized due to a painless head mass, which was revealed as a soft tissue lesion located in calvarial diploe or extracranial lesion with outer calcified shell on the cranial computed tomography. The patient underwent surgical resection, pathologically confirmed as cavernous lymphangioma. We report this case with imaging findings and review of literatures.
