Abstract

A 21-year-old male visited our clinic with an erythematous plaque studded with papulovesicules on the right thigh and calf which had been noticed at 3 months after birth. Moving the limb caused intermittent pain. He was diagnosed with lymphangioma circumscriptum which involved muscle layers after checking the skin biopsy and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Partial removal of mass resulted in relieving pain on motion.
