Definition

A rare lymphatic system anomaly with characteristics of multifocal congenital and progressive vascular lesions of the skin, gastrointestinal tract and occasionally other anatomic sites, causing potentially life-threatening thrombocytopenic coagulopathy. Macroscopically the lesions appear as round to oval red-brown plaques and as large as a few centimeters in diameter. Histopathologically they consist of dilated thin-walled vessels with variable endothelial hyperplasia, positive for lymphatic endothelial cell markers and resembling benign lymphangioendothelioma. [from SNOMEDCT_US]
