What are the treatments for Primary intralymphatic angioendothelioma?

The primary treatment for primary intralymphatic angioendothelioma is surgical excision. This is usually done with a combination of local excision and lymph node dissection. In some cases, radiation therapy may be used to reduce the size of the tumor prior to surgery. In cases where the tumor is too large or too deep to be removed surgically, chemotherapy may be used to shrink the tumor. In some cases, a combination of chemotherapy and radiation may be used.

What are the causes of Primary intralymphatic angioendothelioma?

It is believed that the mutations occur in the genes that control the development of the lymphatic system. Other possible causes include environmental factors, such as exposure to certain chemicals or radiation, and certain medical conditions, such as diabetes or obesity.

What are the symptoms of Primary intralymphatic angioendothelioma?
