ABSTRACT
Secondary lymphedema occurs when normal lymphatics suffer a significant insult such as cancer, radiation therapy, surgery, trauma, or infection. Recurrent infections such as cellulitis, lymphangitis, and cutaneous lymphorrhea are significant complications in lymphedematous sites. A 58-year-old man with endstage colon cancer was referred to our department with a skin lesion and persistent discharge on both legs. On histopathological examination, numerous dilated lymphatic channels which were D2-40 positive were seen in the dermis. Herein, we report an interesting case of lower extremity lymphedema in an endstage cancer patient complicated with persistent cutaneous lymphorrhea.
