Lymphangioma circumscriptum is the name given to localized dilated lymph vessels of uncertain etiology. These localized malformations can appear in infancy or later in life due to a developmental abnormality. These asymptomatic lesions can be brought on secondarily due to surgery or irradiation. The lesions most commonly involve the groin, perineum, thighs, neck, mouth, and the axillae.
