Popis: | Lymphangiograms in 2 patients with protein-losing gastroenteropathy showed abnormalities of both abdominal and lower-extremity lymphatics. With the application of lymphangiography, the generalized nature of the lymphatic dysplasia in primary protein-losing gastroenteropathy has become evident. Striking lymphangiographic similarities between primary protein-losing gastroenteropathy and primary lymphedema suggest that both entities are part of a continuous spectrum of lymphatic dysplasias. |
