Abstract

We have experienced one case of lymphangioma and one case of lymphangiectasia which was diagnosed with the histopathologic studies, including immunofluorescent and electron microscopic methods. The distribution of Ig G and Ig A within the stroma was shown, particularly in the inflammatory cells. The endothelial lined lymphatic vessel consisted of interrupted basal lamina and absence of pericyte on electron microscope.
