Abdominal Lymphatic Malformations: A Novel Approach in Management

Abstract

Abdominal lymphatic malformations (LM) are a challenging clinical entity. Complete excision can be impossible due to the infiltrative nature of some lesions and high rate of complications. Sclerotherapy may require multiple episodes of general anaesthesia and an inability to be definitive in terms of diagnosis and treatment. Subsequently we have adopted a newer algorithm of treatment involving a joint procedure with interventional radiology to enable an intra-operative treatment plan based on the findings.
