Abstract
Lymphovenous malformation (LVM) is a low-flow vascular malformation that arises from an error in morphogenesis in venous and lymphatic channels. They expand throughout life and involve multiple anatomical spaces and neurovascular structures demanding immediate treatment. Here, we report a case of LVM in a 3-year-old on the cheek treated with compartmentalization Popescu’s sutures and intralesional sclerosant injection.
