Fetal lymphangioma is an uncommon congenital malformation that is mainly comprised of the subcutaneous tissue of the neck. This malformation can develop in other areas like the thoracic and axillary regions, though rarely. We report 6 consecutive cases of lymphatic malformation in a fetal center in Dominican Republic. In our case series fetal chest lymphangiomas were present in 2 fetuses. In addition, 2 cases of axillary lymphangiomas also involved the thoracic region. Adequate management by a multidiciplinary team is necessary to provide a better approach to delivery.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
