    Summary

    Cervicofacial lymphangioma surgery in children can be complex. Complete excision offers good outcomes, but partial removal for extensive cases may require multiple procedures and yield disappointing cosmetic results.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Surgery
    • Head and Neck Surgery
    • Vascular Malformations

    Context:

    • Cervicofacial lymphangioma presents a surgical challenge in pediatric patients.
    • Congenital cases are common, often involving the neck and surrounding structures.

    Purpose:

    • To analyze surgical outcomes for cervicofacial lymphangioma in children.
    • To evaluate the relationship between lymphangioma extent and treatment success.

    Summary:

    • Of 41 children with cervicofacial lymphangioma, 35 underwent surgery.
    • Complete excision in 12 cases (limited extent) resulted in no recurrences.
    • Partial excision in 23 cases (extensive involvement) necessitated airway management (tracheotomy in 10) and often multiple procedures, with suboptimal esthetic outcomes.

    Impact:

    • Highlights the importance of complete tumor resection for favorable outcomes.
    • Underscores the challenges and potential complications of managing extensive cervicofacial lymphangiomas.
    • Informs surgical planning and patient counseling regarding esthetic results and the need for potential re-operations.
