ABSTRACT
Lymphangiectasia (acquired lymphangioma) is a rare disease that resembles congenital lymphangioma clinically and histopathologically. It usually occurs as a result of acquired lymphatic obstruction secondary to surgery, irradiation, recurrent infection, primary or secondary lymphedema, pressure, and scar due to chronic inflammation, etc. We herein report a case of vulvar lymphangiectasia of a 15-year-old female. She has suffered from swelling on both legs since the age of 5. She was presented because of multiple grouped vesicles and papules containing clear fluid, which resembled frog's spawn and has developed on the vulvar area since the age of 9.
