  • Abstract
    We describe the presentation of a 16-year-old boy with locally advanced lymphangiomatosis affecting the left thigh and groin. This is a difficult disease to both diagnose and treat, and one in which radical surgery may be necessary to effect a cure or even palliation. In this case, hindquarter amputation allowed a previously wheelchair-bound teenager to mobilize unaided.
