WHAT IS YOUR IMPRESSION OF THE CASE?
Guide Question 1
Macroglossia Secondary toLymphangioma of the Tongue
![Page 21: CASE 2: ENT](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062310/568160c4550346895dcff228/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

LYMPHANGIOMA Lymphangioma is a benign,
harmatomatous tumour of lymphatic vessels with a marked predilection for the head and neck region .
the lesions present superficially as a pebbly, vesicle-like feature with so-called ‘frog-egg’ or ‘tapioca-pudding’ appearance
equal sex incidence among males and females.
The lesions can become evident at any age but they usually appear in infancy
![Page 23: CASE 2: ENT](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062310/568160c4550346895dcff228/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
most common presentation is a soft, painless mass that may enlarge with time and Hemorrhage into the lesion can also cause sudden enlargement.
The second and third most common presenting symptoms are respiratory obstruction and problems with feeding and failure to thrive.
Grossly, the lesions are ill-defined, diffuse, and spongy, having indiscrete margins. Often, it is actually much larger than it appears to be.
![Page 24: CASE 2: ENT](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062310/568160c4550346895dcff228/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Physical exam demonstrates a soft, painless compressible mass often described as being doughy on palpation.
Superficial tumors may be pink to reddish blue, while deeper lesions may show no surface changes or have stretched and atrophic skin.
Regional lymph nodes are either normal or hyperplastic.
Usually these lesions are asymptomatic and patients merely have a cosmetic deformity. Pain is not common unless infection is present.
![Page 25: CASE 2: ENT](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062310/568160c4550346895dcff228/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
not a fatal disease. 3% mortality rate which are usually due
to bronchospasm, atelectasis, or airway compromise from edema.
There is no risk of malignant transformation.
The growth rate is variable but most lesions tend to progress slowly
