Core Tip |
Congenital lymphangiectasia is a rare disease characterized by an increased number of lymphatic vessels in the interstitium and cystic expansion of the lymphatic vessels. The genetic variations in proteins that control the development of lymphatic vessels are suggested as the pathophysiology of this disease. We analysed the case of a neonate who presented with only pleural effusion during late gestational age. However, the patient died after delivery because of the inability to establish spontaneous breathing. The autopsy indicated lymphangiectasia within systemic organs. Further, whole exome sequencing revealed rare heterozygous mutations in the lymphangiogenesis-controlling genes ADAMTS3 and FLT4. |
