Closed cerivs closed 2 years ago

cerivs commented 2 years ago

Def: A disease of the lymph system manifesting as abnormal overgrowth of lymphatic vessels with multiple areas in the lungs, pleura, bones and soft tissues. The overgrowth of these vessels leads to lymphatic malformations, small or large cysts, formerly called lymphangiomas. These cysts often lead to bone destruction. GLA is closely related to Gorham-Stout disease, a condition involving abnormal growth of lymphatic vessels that affects bone. https://www.childrenshospital.org/conditions-and-treatments/conditions/g/generalized-lymphatic-anomaly and PMID:31263281

Synonyms: GLA, diffuse pulmonary lymphangiomatosis, DPL, pulmonary lymphangiomatosis
