Title: [Surgical treatment of lymphangioma of the neck]. Author: Li ZY. Journal: Zhonghua Wai Ke Za Zhi; 1993 Mar; 31(3):156-7. PubMed ID: 8223026. Abstract: We studied 54 surgically treated cases of lymphangioma of neck, including total resection in 41 cases and partial resection combined with cryosurgery in 13. No recurrence was found in all 52 followed up cases. Facial Paralysis after operation occurred in 10 cases, among them, 9 made a recovery during a period of 2 to 6 months. We suggest that partial resection is the procedure of choice in order not to damage important surrounding structure in those cases and that total resection is not feasible. This relapse-free long term survival.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
