Successful treatment of giant lymphatic malformation with symptomatic cutaneous vesicles by surgical excision and coverage with Integra ®

We report one such case of a giant mixed type LM in the right lower extremity of an 11-year-old boy. The goal of this article is to discuss the currently available treatment modalities for these complex cases and to describe the successful outcome after an initial treatment with combined sclerotherapy and lasertherapy followed by a definitive surgical excision and coverage with Integra® and skin grafts.Level of evidence: Level V, therapeutic study.
