Abstract

Whereas lymphangiomas of the neck, axilla, or mediastinum are not uncommon in children, they are rarely found in the adult, and primary lymphangioma of bone is very rare. The authors report a case of multiple lymphangiomas of the neck, axilla, mediastinum, and bones in a 34-year-old man, which they believe to be only the second such case reported thus far.
