Abstract
Treatment methods for lymphatic malformations vary and are selected according to the location and extent of the disease. A giant lymphatic malformation surrounding the leg in an infant is a rare and challenging condition. Only few cases of surgery of such giant lymphatic malformation have been reported in the literature. The objective of this clinical case report is to describe a successful multi-stage surgery for a giant lymphatic malformation encircling the leg in an infant.
