Abstract

Lymphangioma circumscriptum is an uncommon benign hamartomatous malformation that consists of dilated lymphatic channels lined by normal, single-cell lymphatic endothelia. The diagnosis of lymphangioma circumscriptum is usually made on the basis of clinical characteristics. However, a biopsy is required to exclude other clinically resembling diseases, especially when the lesion shows unusual clinical features. We report a case of recurred perianal lymphangioma circumscriptum in a 13-year-old boy, which showed a verrucous mass having features of condyloma accuminatum.
